1. A gesture recognition simulation system comprising: a three-dimensional display system that displays a three-dimensional image of at least one simulated object having at least one functional component; a gesture recognition interface system configured to receive an input gesture associated with a sensorless input object from a user, the input gesture being determined by changes in at least one of a three-dimensional shape and a physical location of the sensorless input object relative to the at least one functional component; and a simulation application controller configured to match a given input gesture with a predefined action associated with the at least one functional component, and invoke the three dimensional display system to display a simulated action associated with the predefined action on at least a portion of the at least one simulated object associated with the at least one functional component.
