Abstract

The technical problem of providing user interface elements that can be activated without physical contact with any specific device is addressed by configuring an augmented reality component to display a touchless user selectable element that can be activated in response to detecting collision of an object from the output of a digital image sensor of a camera with a user selectable element. The augmented reality component detects collision of the touchless user selectable element with an object from the person image, such as a hand object, and, in response, triggers a predetermined action, such as, for example, starting or stopping recording of the output of a digital image sensor or capturing a still image of the output of a digital image sensor.
