    Abstract: A wireless device controls an object, such as a physical device, directly or 5 through interaction with a virtual representation of the object situated at a predefined physical location. The wireless device identifies an intent gesture performed by a user that indicates intent to control the object, such as pointing or orienting the wireless device toward the object, with or without additional input; determines the object associated with the intent gesture using wireless ranging and/or device orientation; 10 interprets sensor data from one or more sensors associated with the wireless device to determine an action gesture corresponding to a command; and transmits a corresponding command value to control the object. Additionally, in some embodiments, the wireless device presents output information that indicates the range/direction of the object, such as on a map or image of the proximate area with an 15 indicator representative of the object shown on the map/image.
