Gaze&Racket

Also known as Racket&Gaze

Look at the target and slice the scene with a hand-held virtual plane (a racket); the gazed target closest to the racket is selected.

How it works

Gaze preselects targets within 1.5 degrees of the gaze ray; a large plane attached to the dominant hand, which can be moved and rotated freely, picks the preselected target nearest to it. Inspired by Conductor. It was the most preferred technique in the comparative study. Hand tracking in an HMD; the non-dominant hand confirms with a pinch. Targets in a dense 2 m sphere 3 m away.
