Demonstration: 3-Hand Manipulation of Virtual Objects

International audienceThis demonstration introduces a new 3D interaction technique called "3-Hand Manipulation", for multi-user collaborative manipulation of 3D objects. This technique relies on the use of three manipulation points that can be used simultaneously by three different "hands" of two or three users. The three translation motions of the manipulation points fully determine the resulting 6 DOF motion of an object. We describe the graphical representations of the 3-Hand Manipulation and an illustration of its use by two or three users on an insertion task
