User-configurable, gestural zoom facility for an imaging device

Abstract:

Gestural zoom operation of an imaging device is facilitated by receiving, by one or more processors, zoom configuration data of a user for configuring gestural zoom operation of the imaging device, where the imaging device includes a gestural zoom mode with a zoom function that is user-configurable, and by configuring for the user, by the one or more processors, the gestural zoom operation of the imaging device for the gestural zoom mode. The configuring uses the received zoom configuration data, and includes configuring the zoom function for the user and mapping a selected portion of the configured zoom function to a gestural range of the user of the imaging device.
