Modern CAD/CAM and Virtual Reality applications cannot be imagined without the new class of interaction devices allowing the user direct interaction with computer generated scenes. Integrating such devices into existing or newly developed software is a complex task for a number of reasons. The set of devices is very heterogeneous in functionality and data formats. Most devices are difficult to handle by inexperienced users or need careful handling and calibration. After reviewing a number of existing systems, a novel approach to this problem is presented. A device interface that allows the flexible, hardware independent configuration and error robust operation, even reconfiguration and exchanges of interaction devices during operation, will be introduced. The system structure is discussed and novel communication protocols reducing latency are invented.

Virtual environments are created by specifying their content, which comprises geometry, interaction, properties, and behavior of the objects. Interaction and behavior can be cumbersome to specify and create, if they have to be implemented through an API. In this paper, we take the script based approach to describing virtual environments. We try to identify a generic and complete, yet simple set of functionality, so that nonprogrammers can readily build their own virtual worlds. We extend the common object behavior paradigm by the notion of an Action-Event-Object triad.
