In this contribution, we propose to enhance two distant object manipulation techniques, BMSR (Bimanual Near-Field Metaphor with Scaled Replica) and the classic HOMER (Scaled Hand-Centered Object Manipulation Extending Ray Casting), via nearfield scaled replica viewing. proposed Direct BMSR, context replicas are displayed so that target can be manipulated relative its context, allowing user directly manipulate in their arm's reach space. Some additional features were implemented make an...
Manipulating objects in immersive virtual environments has been studied for decades, but is still considered as a challenging problem. Current methods manipulating distant poses issues such lack of precision and accuracy, only limited set transformations supported. In this paper, we proposed three metaphors: near-field widget-based metaphor, two metaphors with scaled replica, one unimanual the other bimanual. The metaphor an extension Widgets [20], supports translation, scaling (anchored...
In this contribution, we propose a hybrid interaction technique that integrates near-field and object-space techniques for manipulating objects at distance in virtual reality (VR). The objective of the was to seamlessly leverage strengths both manipulation techniques. We employed bimanual metaphor with scaled replica (BMSR) as our technique, which enabled us perform multilevel degrees-of-freedom (DoF) separation transformations, such 1~3DoF translation, uniform anchored scaling, 1DoF 3DoF...
Public transport is vital to visually impaired people. In particular, they heavily rely upon the bus network that has a larger coverage area than other forms of public transportation. We observed and interviewed 14 people, compiled information about various challenges faced when taking bus. Comparing this existing assistive solutions aim solve specific problems such as looking for stops or informing them right arriving, our goal improve riding experience entire journey. Here, we designed...
