In one embodiment, a method performed by the computer system detects an initial presence of a user pose, indicates to a user progress toward achieving a predetermined state while continuing to detect the user pose, determines that the detection of the user pose has reached the predetermined state, and responds to the detection of the user pose based on determining that the detection has reached the predetermined state. The computer system may further prompt the user by displaying a representation of the user pose corresponding to an option for a user decision, detecting the user decision based at least in part on determining that the detection of the user pose has reached the predetermined state, and responding to the user decision.
