    Abstract: A tracking device tracks hand motion of a user. An output device, for example an augmented reality headset or a virtual reality headset, is configured for the output of virtual elements in augmented or virtual reality. A processor recognizes a first gesture when the user turns a palm of a first hand (H1) towards his face. The processor then displays a set of virtual elements (EN) above the palm of the first hand, the virtual elements being arranged above each other like a card deck, using the output device. In other words, the virtual elements can be visualized as cards on the palm of the first hand. In most embodiments, the virtual elements are attached to at least one of the user's hands. The method provides a user interface for hand interaction with virtual elements, for example for viewing a content gallery or data exploration. The virtual elements each have a primarily flat appearance and can be displayed as windows, documents, search results, images, etc. The method allows the user to use his hands in an intuitive and natural way, as if he would hold a card deck or a slinky in his hands.
