Input Devices in Mental Health Applications: Steering Performance in a Virtual Reality Paths with WiiMote

Abstract: Recent studies present Virtual Reality (VR) as potentially effective technology in the Mental Health (MH) field. The objective of this paper is to evaluate two interaction techniques (traditional vs novel) using a popular and low-cost input device (WiiMote) within a theoretical framework of the Steering Law. The results show that the WiiMote responds to the requirements for the MH technologies, and that the law of Steering continues to be valid on all of three paths. This opens up a new range of possible resea… Show more

“…Three gesture controllers have come out with games consoles on the mass market that were considered for this work: the Nintendo Wii remote, the Microsoft Kinect, and the Sony PlayStation Move. Due to their earlier release dates more work has been done with the Nintendo Wii remote and Kinect [65,66,67]. The experiments use the PlayStation Move [68] over the Nintendo Wii remote as the Move is more modern and has an accessible API to work with provided by Sony's Move.Me software [69].…”

“…It has been used to control robots [75], work out the orientation CHAPTER 2. BACKGROUND of a head-mounted display [76], validate the steering law [66], and control a football character in video games [65], among other things. In fact, using the Wii remote for interaction by pointing is essentially how the Nintendo Wii main menu works.…”
