Finger direction based holographic object interaction from a distance

A computer program product for selecting a user to control a 3D holographic object of a plurality of 3D holographic objects projected in midair above a central point of a location by a projector, the location further comprising a plurality of cameras around the central point of the location, a computer within the location and in communication with the projector comprising at least one processor, one or more memories, one or more computer readable storage media, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by the computer to perform a method comprising:

• identifying, by the computer, users situated around the central point and the 3D holographic objects;
• identifying, by the computer, a plurality of user interactions with the 3D holographic objects;
• evaluating, by the computer, identification of the users and a policy regarding manipulation of the 3D holographic objects selected by more than one user;
• for the 3D holographic objects selected by multiple users, generating, by the computer, a queue of interactions requested by the multiple users during interactions of a single user with the 3D holographic object;
• and
• executing, by the computer, the interactions requested by the user with a highest priority of the multiple users.
