1. A method of movement-based input, the method comprising:
identifying, based on sensor data from at least one sensor, a plurality of points along a movement are in a three-dimensional space;
generating a curve in the three-dimensional space, wherein the curve runs along the plurality of points;
projecting the curve onto a plane from a perspective to generate a two-dimensional representation of the curve, wherein the plane is oriented based on a direction in which the curve progresses; and
transmitting information corresponding to the two-dimensional representation of the curve to a payment service system to cause the payment service system to progress a transaction based on the information.
