“…Their results demonstrate the existence of a parallel and independent structure for object translation and orientation. Their results suggest that object translation and orientation share characteristics of an integral structure according to the notion by Jacob et al [13].…”

“…Jacob et al [13] proposed a framework that can facilitate the understanding and categorization of integrality and separability of input devices and interactions afforded by these. Two input dimensions are considered integral if they are perceived as a single dimension or seperable if the dimensions seem unrelated [13]. In their study, performance was better when the device matched the tasks in integrality/separability dimensions.…”

Abstract. We present PressureMove a pressure based interaction technique that enables simultaneous control of pressure input and mouse movement. Simultaneous control of pressure and mouse movement can support tasks that require control of multiple parameters, like rotation and translation of an object, or panand-zoom. We implemented four variations of PressureMove techniques for a 2D position and orientation matching task where pressure manipulations mapped to object orientation and mouse movement to object translation. The Naive technique mapped raw pressure-sensor values to the object rotation; the Rate-based technique mapped discrete pressure values to speed of rotation and Hierarchical and Hybrid techniques that use a two-step approach to control orientation using pressure. In user study that compared the four techniques with the default mouse-only technique we found that Rate-based PressureMove was the fastest technique with the least number of crossings and as preferred as the default mouse in terms of user-preference. We discuss the implications of our user study and present several design guidelines.

“…It is clear that the impact of visual feedback on spatial interaction is complex. Previous studies have provided evidence of a strong connection between the perceptual structure of visual information in an interactive display environment and the control structures of the input devices that facilitate interaction [8,20]. Other perceptual phenomena associated with control actions, such as kinesthetic and proprioceptive feedback, also affect spatial interactions in large-screen display environments [1,7].…”

Abstract. The two visual systems hypothesis in neuroscience suggests that pointing without visual feedback may be less affected by spatial visual illusions than cognitive interactions such as judged target location. Our study examined predictions of this theory for target localization on a large-screen display. We contrasted pointing interactions under varying levels of visual feedback with location judgments of targets that were surrounded by an offset frame. As predicted by the theory, the frame led to systematic errors in verbal report of target location but not in pointing without visual feedback for some participants. We also found that pointing with visual feedback produced a similar level of error as location judgments, while temporally lagged visual feedback appeared to reduce these errors somewhat. This suggests that pointing without visual feedback may be a useful interaction technique in situations described by the two visual systems literature, especially with large-screen displays and immersive environments.

This article introduces the Complexity of Interaction Sequences model (CIS). CIS describes the structure of interaction techniques and predicts their performance in the context of an interaction sequence. The model defines the complexity of an interaction technique as a measure of its effectiveness within a given context. We tested CIS to compare three interaction techniques: fixed unimanual palettes, fixed bimanual palettes and toolglasses. The model predicts that the complexity of both palettes depends on interaction sequences, unlike toolglasses. CIS also predicts that fixed bimanual palettes outperform the other two techniques. Predictions were tested empirically with a controlled experiment and contrast with previous studies. We argue that, in order to be generalisable, experimental comparisons of interaction techniques should include the concept of context sensitivity. RÉSUMÉCet article introduit le modèle Complexity of Interaction Sequences CIS). CIS décrit la structure des techniques d'interaction et prédit leur performance dans le contexte d'une séquence d'interaction. Le modèle définit la complexité d'une technique d'interaction comme la mesure de son efficacité dans un contexte donné. Nous avons testé CIS pour comparer trois techniques d'interaction : les palettes fixes unimanuelles, les palettes fixes bimanuelles et les toolglasses. Le modèle prédit que, contrairement aux toolglasses, la complexité des deux types de palette dépend des séquences d'interaction. CIS prédit également que les palettes fixes bimanuelles sont toujours plus efficaces que les deux autres techniques. Les prédictions ont été vérifiées empiriquement par une expérimentation contrôlée et contrastent avec les résultats des précédentes études. Nous argumentons que, afin d'être généralisables, les comparaisons expérimentales entre techniques d'interaction doivent prendre en compte le concept de sensibilité au contexte.
