Systems, methods and computer readable media are disclosed for gesture shortcuts. A user's movement or body position is captured by a capture device of a system, and is used as input to control the system. For a system-recognized gesture, there may be a full version of the gesture and a shortcut of the gesture. Where the system recognizes that either the full version of the gesture or the shortcut of the gesture has been performed, it sends an indication that the system-recognized gesture was observed to a corresponding application. Where the shortcut comprises a subset of the full version of the gesture, and both the shortcut and the full version of the gesture are recognized as the user performs the full version of the gesture, the system recognizes that only a single performance of the gesture has occurred, and indicates to the application as such.
A method for using a gesture shortcut in a system that takes user gestures as input to an application, comprising:
A system for using a gesture shortcut in a system that takes user gestures as input to an application, comprising:
A computer-readable storage medium for using a gesture shortcut in a system that takes user gestures as input to an application, comprising computer-readable instructions that when executed on a processor cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
