System and Methods for Relative Representation of Spatial Objects and Disambiguation in an Interface

A method for interaction between a user and a device, the method comprising:

• receiving a request from the user through an input system, the request including a reference to an object type in an external environment;
• obtaining a subset of real world object indicators from a database of known real world object indicators, the subset of real world object indicators being identified based on the reference to the object type and an estimated geographic location of the device, the subset of real world object indicators corresponding to at least one potential match to the request;
• displaying a representation of each real world object indicator in the subset of real world object indicators;
• receiving a non-tactile selection of one of the representations of the real world object indicators in the subset of real world object indicators through the input system;
• and
• determining an object corresponding to the request by disambiguating the non-tactile selection.
