    Abstract: A method for single-handed microgesture input comprises receiving hand tracking data for a hand of a user. A set of microgesture targets that include software functions are assigned to positions along a length of a first finger. A visual affordance including indicators for two or more assigned microgesture targets is provided to the user. The received hand tracking data is analyzed by a gesture recognition machine. A location of a thumbtip of the hand of the user is determined relative to the positions along the first finger. Responsive to determining that the thumbtip is within a threshold distance of the first finger at a first position along the length of the first finger, an indicator for a corresponding first microgesture target is augmented, and then further augmented based on a duration the thumbtip is at the first position. Responsive to detecting a confirmation action, the corresponding microgesture target executes.
