VR as a Next-Generation User Interface? • Originally background in computer graphics & interactive visualization • Using the VRS scenegraph system for developing VR and desktop applications • Dealing with different presentation devices and user interfaces Demonstrations need to be device independent Problems arising when using VR-Systems • Instrumentation of the user • Cognitive overload when performing 3D interactions • Lack of standardization
Intuitive 3D Interaction Metaphors • Virtual Pointer Metaphors • are natural and intuitive • require low effort • usable for local and remote selection • Concept of Improved Virtual Pointer Metaphor (IVPM) • afford unique selection without requirement of an exact hit • usage of adequate visual feedback about active object • different presentation
(Semi-) Next Generation UI? • Autostereoscopic Displays • Standardized UI by using the desktop metaphor • Intuitive to use through WIMP paradigm • No instrumentation of the user
