Abstract

In an embodiment, the computing unit determines a spherical volume region corresponding to a sphere and lying in front of a display device and the midpoint of the volume region. Furthermore, the computing unit inserts manipulation possibilities related to the output image into image regions of the output image. An image capture device captures a sequence of depth images and communicates it to the computing unit. The computing unit ascertains therefrom whether and, if appropriate, at which of a plurality of image regions the user points with an arm or a hand, whether the user performs a predefined gesture that differs from pointing at the output image or an image region, or whether the user performs a grasping movement with regard to the volume region. Depending on the result of the evaluation, the computing unit may activate a manipulation possibility, perform an action, or rotates the three-dimensional structure.
