Improvement of the Design Quality of 3D-Input Devices Using Motion Analyses and Biomechanical Comparisons

Abstract

Due to the lack of investigations and standards describing the design of real 3D input devices a real 3D input device was develop. To compare several devices a test task was created and performed with combination of a motion capturing system. During the experiment 19 attendees with different levels of experience performed the test with this setup. Several intra-individual motion patterns and using strategies belonging to different input devices could be observed.
