Interactive technology is increasingly integrated with physical objects that do not have a
traditional keyboard and mouse style of interaction, and many do not even have a display …

User interface has special importance in immersive virtual environments. Interactions based

In this paper we describe a cognitive model for provoking gestural dialogue with humans,
embodied in an interactive marionette. The cognitive model is a framework for the design …

To a great extent, immersion of a virtual environment (VE) depends on the naturalness of the
interface it provides for interaction. As people commonly exploit gestures during …

Gesture-based interfaces offer a suitable platform for interactions in Virtual Environments
(VE). However, the difficulties involved in learning and making of distinct gestures affect the …
