gesto

In computer science, „gesto“ typically refers to „gesture,“ which is a motion or movement made by a user, often detected through touch, motion sensors, or devices such as smartphones and tablets. Gestures can be used as an input method in user interfaces, allowing users to interact with applications and devices through physical movements rather than traditional input methods like keyboards or mice.

Common examples of gestures include swiping, pinching, tapping, and rotating, which can be mapped to specific commands or actions within a software application. Gesture recognition technology interprets these physical actions and translates them into digital commands, enhancing user experience and enabling more intuitive interaction designs. As touch and motion-sensitive technologies have become prevalent, gesture recognition has become increasingly important in the development of user interfaces across various platforms.
