Abstract
Interaction is one of the major research issues of Augmented Reality based Digital Storytelling. There have been many previous works on Augmented Reality interactions where various devices and methods have been used. For example, markers as well as a keyboard and a mouse have been popular interaction means for marker-based Augmented Reality. Our primary interest was to find intuitive and easy-to-use interfaces and interaction methods to be used for manipulating virtual objects and scenes in AR applications. In this paper, we evaluated four interaction tools for general tasks such as selection, translation, rotation, and scale of virtual objects or characters that are frequently used for interactions of Augmented Reality based Digital Storytelling. Testing interaction tools were based on a keyboard/mouse, visual markers, a joy-pad, and a multi-touch pad. Based on usability tests, we introduced some desirable characteristics for Augmented Reality based Digital Storytelling interactions.
