Interaction strength using virtual objects for machine control

This invention describes a way to control virtual objects in a digital world using your hand. It works by tracking your hand's movements in real space and creating a special "manipulation point" when you make a virtual pinch gesture with two fingers. This point then acts like a magnet, pulling or pushing a virtual object, with the interaction getting stronger as you "pinch" the object. The claims specifically focus on using a hand and a two-finger pinch to create this control point, relying on a predictive model of the hand for tracking.

Why it matters: Filed before widespread adoption of advanced AI for real-time computer vision and hand tracking. Modern machine learning models and integrated cameras in consumer VR/AR devices can now more accurately and affordably implement the predictive hand modeling and gesture recognition described.
