Linear Offset

Also known as Arm Extension (linear)

A virtual hand cursor whose offset grows in proportion to the head-to-hand distance, a linear version of Go-Go's arm extension.

How it works

The cursor is displaced along the head-to-hand direction by an amount proportional to how far the hand is from the head. For targets out of reach it outperformed the fixed-length and Go-Go offsets in the study; for targets within reach no offset was best.
