ABSTRACT
In this paper, we introduce approaches to navigating and manipulating objects in a Collaborative Virtual Environment (CVE) that engage tangible objects and an interactive table interface. We also identify three design concerns that are common to physical-virtual connectivity for interaction with CVE systems. At last, we propose solutions to these issues within the context of CVEs.

Novel interaction techniques using touch-sensitive tangibles in tabletop environments
ITS '12: Proceedings of the 2012 ACM international conference on Interactive tabletops and surfacesIn 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 ...
Pinch-n-paste: direct texture transfer interaction in augmented reality
VRST '12: Proceedings of the 18th ACM symposium on Virtual reality software and technologyOur Pinch-n-Paste allows a user to touch or pinch one part of an object, copy and move its texture, and paste it onto an other object, directly with his or her hand, in an augmented reality environment. To transfer texture appropriately from one part of ...
3D Tabletop AR: A Comparison of Mid-Air, Touch and Touch+Mid-Air Interaction
AVI '20: Proceedings of the International Conference on Advanced Visual InterfacesThis paper contributes a first comparative study of three techniques for selecting 3D objects anchored to the table in tabletop Augmented Reality (AR). The impetus for this study is that touch interaction makes more sense when the targeted objects are ...
