Abstract

Navigating through objects or items in a display device using a first input device to detect pointing of a user's finger to an object or item and using a second input device to receive the user's indication on the selection of the object or the item. An image of the hand is captured by the first input device and is processed to determine a location on the display device corresponding to the location of the fingertip of the pointing finger. The object or the item corresponding to the location of the fingertip is selected after the second input device receives predetermined user input from the second input device.
