Measuring and reconstructing pointing in visual contexts

We describe an experiment to gather original
data on geometrical aspects of pointing.
In particular, we are focusing upon
the concept of the pointing cone, a geometrical
model of a pointing’s extension.
In our setting we employed methodological
and technical procedures of a new type
to integrate data from annotations as well
as from tracker recordings. We combined
exact information on position and orientation
with rater’s classifications. Our first
results seem to challenge classical linguistic
and philosophical theories of demonstration
in that they advise to separate
pointings from reference.
