Abstract
Examples dis closed herein relate to displaying, proximate to a hand engagement interface, a plurality of user interface elements, receiving, via a freeform input interface associated with the hand engagement interface, a freeform input from a user, identifying a command associated with a first element of the plurality of user interface elements associated with the freeform input, and updating the display of the plurality of user interface elements according to the command associated with the first element of the plurality of user elements.
Claims14
A non-transitory machine readable medium storing instructions executable by a processor to:
- display, proximate to a hand engagement interface of a printing apparatus, a plurality of user interface elements;
- receive, via a freeform input interface associated with the hand engagement interface, a freeform input from a user, wherein the processor determines:
- a receipt of the freeform input in response to a touch-based input at the freeform input interface received from the user;
- and
- the receipt of the freeform input in response to an augmented reality based input of an augmented reality interface, the augmented reality interface comprising an imaging system to capture and process a gesture input from the user that is mapped to a command executable by the hand engagement interface, wherein the freeform input interface comprises the augmented reality interface;
- identify a command associated with a first element of the plurality of user interface elements associated with the freeform input;
- and
- update the display of the plurality of user interface elements according to the command associated with the first element of the plurality of user elements.
5 more elements
A method comprising:
- displaying a first plurality of user interface elements;
- receiving, via a mechanical actuation of a hand engagement interface of a printing apparatus, a selection of a first element of the first plurality of user interface elements;
- replacing the display of the first plurality of user interface elements with a display of a second plurality of user interface elements;
- receiving, via an input to a freeform input interface associated with the hand engagement interface, a selection of a second element of the second plurality of user interface elements wherein the freeform input interface determines:
- a receipt of the freeform input in response to a touch-based input at the freeform input interface received from a user;
- and
- the receipt of the freeform input in response to an augmented reality based input of an augmented reality interface, the augmented reality interface comprising an imaging system to capture and process a gesture input from the user that is mapped to a command executable by the hand engagement interface, wherein the freeform input interface comprises the augmented reality interface;
- and
- performing an action associated with the second element of the second plurality of user interface elements.
6 more elements
A printing apparatus, comprising:
- a hand engagement interface comprising a mechanical actuator and a user interface display area;
- and
- a processor circuit coupled to the hand engagement interface, wherein the processor circuit executes machine readable instructions to:
- display, in the user interface display area, a plurality of user interface elements;
- receive, via a freeform input interface associated with the hand engagement interface, an input from a user, wherein the processor circuit determines:
- a receipt of the input in response to a touch-based input at the freeform input interface received from the user;
- and
- the receipt of the input in response to an augmented reality based input of an augmented reality interface, the augmented reality interface comprising an imaging system to capture and process a gesture input from the user that is mapped to a command executable by the hand engagement interface, wherein the freeform input interface comprises the augmented reality interface;
- identify a command associated with a first element of the plurality of user interface elements associated with the freeform input;
- and
- update the display of the plurality of user interface elements according to the identified command associated with the first element of the plurality of user elements, wherein the instructions to update the display comprise instructions to modify a color of at least one element of the plurality of user interface elements.
