Annakannan Ideas – 48: Gesture Commands

Today I got an idea to apply gesture commands, to file transfer and more actions between devices; from laptop to mobile / tab or vice versa or other devices. After pairing them with Bluetooth, we can pick a file / folder by pointing with our index finger; then with five fingers together (standing posture) we can move towards the target device; to accept the file, we can use four fingers as we say come in to a friend; with this action, we can transfer files quickly. We can even show the target device with the same index finger to select, if there are more devices nearby.

With gestures we can upload & download files. We can pick a file / folder by pointing with our index finger; then with five fingers together (palm upside) move upwards to upload. Similarly with palm downside move downwards to download.

To run an app / audio / video, we can apply the same index finger to select & gun posture to run (thumb finger upside, index finger straight as pointing, all three other fingers are closed).

With these gestures, we can run a video from mobile to TV; an OTT movie from laptop to TV; we can also switch a video call from mobile to laptop or TV. If we already paired these devices, the security issue will be solved. To authenticate these fingers, we can use biometric.

We can also use gestures to stop a video as how a traffic police stops a vehicle with five fingers; we can show this gesture two times to stop a video / audio / game.

There are more options to develop the gesture language; we need to standardize them quickly; so the future generation will have less operational efforts / struggles; and can spend more time on actual life.
