ABSTRACT
In this work, we propose techniques for interaction that use a touch-sensitive tangible to assist 3D manipulation in tabletop applications. The objective of this research is to investigate the effectiveness and user satisfaction with this combination for performing virtual object manipulation in tabletop environments. A prototype of a touch-sensitive tangible was constructed and some of the proposed techniques were implemented, namely 3D translation and rotation. We conducted a pilot study to compare 3D manipulation on the tabletop with and without the tangible, from which we found that the touch-sensitive tangible was useful for 3D manipulation tasks.
