3DAthlon: 3D Gestural Interfaces to Support a 3-Stage Contest in VR

摘要

In the context of the 3DUI Contest promoted by the IEEE VR 2018, we propose 3D interaction techniques that address three distinct tasks in a virtual environment setup: climbing a ladder, controlling a quadcopter in a first-person view flight, and building a tower by stacking a series of objects. The interaction techniques were developed so the player, our 3D-athlete, has control over the events in each task, following metaphors that facilitate the use of the interface, and having status and spatial awareness supported by clear feedback cues. Thus, the player should be able to execute the tasks with precision and agility.
