“…Natural 3D gestural interactions in virtual reality have been explored in numerous research projects (e.g., [16,26]). Our 3D gestures share some similarities with the work of Cutler and colleagues [4], who developed a set of both single-and two-handed gestural interaction techniques for manipulating 3D objects on the Responsive Workbench.…”

We present a set of cross-dimensional interaction techniques for a hybrid user interface that integrates existing 2D and 3D visualization and interaction devices. Our approach is built around oneand two-handed gestures that support the seamless transition of data between co-located 2D and 3D contexts. Our testbed environment combines a 2D multi-user, multi-touch, projection surface with 3D head-tracked, see-through, head-worn displays and 3D tracked gloves to form a multi-display augmented reality. We address some of the ways in which we can interact with private data in a collaborative, heterogeneous workspace. We also report on a pilot usability study to evaluate the effectiveness and ease of use of the cross-dimensional interactions.

“…Investigations into gestural input for VR has a long history, for example, Nishino et al [72], in his paper from 1997, introduced the TGSH (Two-handed Gesture environment SHell) interface. Furthermore, Song et al [73] discusses the Finger-Gesture method for selection and manipulation, whereas Latoschik [74] presented a VR designated framework for gesture detection and analysis.…”

Photogrammetry is a science dealing with obtaining reliable information about physical objects using their imagery description. Recent advancements in the development of Virtual Reality (VR) can help to unlock the full potential offered by the digital 3D-reality models generated using the state-of-art photogrammetric technologies. These models are becoming a viable alternative for providing high-quality content for such immersive environment. Simultaneously, their analyses in VR could bring added-value to professionals working in various engineering and non-engineering settings and help in extracting useful information about physical objects. However, there is little research published to date on feasible interaction methods in the VR-based systems augmented with the 3D photogrammetric models, especially concerning gestural input interfaces. Consequently, this paper presents the PhotoTwinVR -an immersive, gesture-controlled system for manipulation and inspection of 3D photogrammetric models of physical objects in VR.Our system allows the user to perform basic engineering operations on the model subjected to the off-line inspection process. An observational study with a group of three domain-expert participants was completed to verify its feasibility. The system was populated with a 3D photogrammetric model of an existing pipe-rack generated using a commercial software package. The participants were asked to carry out a survey measurement of the object using the measurement toolbox offered by PhotoTwinVR. The study revealed a potential of such immersive tool to be applied in practical real-words cases of off-line inspections of pipelines.

“…Based on hand input, surfaces can not only be generated, but also manipulated by certain hand postures or by performing motions (Nishino, 1997). Obviously, the hand postures and/or motions have to be recognized and converted to modeling commands.…”
