Amazon.com Inc. has patented augmented reality technology that can be controlled with gestures.
The patent describes cameras, computers and projectors that display an interactive scene on a physical surface.
"The projected content may include electronic books, videos, images, interactive menus, or any other sort of visual content," Amazon said in its patent filing. "Various types of cameras and sensors may be used to capture images representing the scene and a person's hand within the scene."
The patent builds on two related patents awarded to Amazon in December 2015.
