English abstract:
A mobile augmented reality system for 3D interaction
requires an easy to use, interactive input device. In our
work on the Studierstube project, we had long-term
experience with two-handed direct manipulation
interfaces based on tracked props. However, for a mobile
setup, props are no longer appropriate as they
permanently occupy the userīs hands and prevent the user
from performing everyday tasks such as opening doors.
Instead, we resorted to the common tool which is very
intuitive to use and can be applied for nearly all
interactions: our hands. A big advantage of hand based
interaction is the intuitive use of gestures such as
pointing, grabbing or stretching.
