Abstract

There is a widening gap between interaction devices for Virtual Environments and other factors such as graphical realism, accessibility and complexity. To address this problem, we developed a Mixed Reality environment that allows participants to interact with virtual entities using an existing toy a Hula Hoop. In a subsequent user study we attempted to correlate the use of real artefacts as input devices towards increased interactivity.
