Abstract
Provided are computer-implemented methods and systems for controlling devices using gestures and a 3D sensor that enables implementing the above. In one embodiment, the method proposed herein may be based on defining at least one sensor area within the space surrounding a user of a controlled device; associating this sensor area with at least one user gesture; associating the combination of the user gesture and sensor area with an actionable command; identifying the direction of the line of sight of the user and a focal point of the line of sight of the user; and, if the line of sight of the user is directed a sensor area, issuing an actionable command corresponding to the combination of the sensor area and the gesture that the user makes while looking at this sensor area.
