The magic wand

Abstract: We want to present a multimodal user interface for interaction with the virtual environment back-projected on the large projection screen. We use the interaction metaphor of a "spell-casting" wizard (the user) using a "magic wand" to interact with the VR environment and to complete some tasks. Our contribution is an user interface, which tries to take advantage of the past experience of the user such as fairy-tales or fantasy movies 1 .

“…The stick as a form-factor for interaction devices has also been explored in HCI research. Most work has centered around using sticks as pointers or wands, so that they enable users to control digital information intuitively [2] or to provide vibration or force feedback to users' hands [4] [6]. Commercial gaming systems [8] such as the Wii or PS4 also have stick-like controllers to detect motion gestures by users.…”

“…Wilson and Shafer's XWand [5] is an expensive, highly electronic device. Magic Wand [6] also uses magnetic sensor-based tracking and can only detect the pointing direction. The most common interfaces are point and click devices interacting with a screen [7], which are limited to 2 dimensions of the screen.…”

“…Laviola [13] investigated the use of whole-hand gestures and speech to create, place, modify, and manipulate furniture and interior decorations. Ciger et al [14] presented a multimodal user interface that combined a magic wand with spell casting. The user could navigate in the virtual environment, grab and manipulate objects using a combination of speech and the magic wand.…”
