ABSTRACT
We developed a cubic keyboard to exploit the three-dimensional (3D) space of virtual reality (VR) environments. The user enters a word by drawing a stroke with the controller. The keyboard consists of 27 keys arranged in a 3 x 3 x 3 (vertical, horizontal, and depth) 3D array; all 26 letters of the alphabet are assigned to 26 keys; the center key is blank. The user moves the controller to the key of a letter of the word and then selects that key by slowing movement.

Text Entry Method for Immersive Virtual Environments Using Curved Keyboard
VRST '19: Proceedings of the 25th ACM Symposium on Virtual Reality Software and TechnologyIn this paper, we introduce a curved QWERTY keyboard, bent spherically in front of the user, to facilitate 3D word-gesture text entry in immersive virtual environments. Using the curved keyboard, the number of candidate words in the 3D word-gesture text ...
Spatial virtual keyboard for wand based virtual reality
SUI '17: Proceedings of the 5th Symposium on Spatial User InteractionWe propose a virtual keyboard for virtual environments using tracked controllers that users interact with spatially. Based on how users interact with touch screen keyboards, users move their controller into the volume of a key. Input on the controller ...
The 1line keyboard: a QWERTY layout in a single line
UIST '11: Proceedings of the 24th annual ACM symposium on User interface software and technologyCurrent soft QWERTY keyboards often consume a large portion of the screen space on portable touchscreens. This space consumption can diminish the overall user experi-ence on these devices. In this paper, we present the 1Line keyboard, a soft QWERTY ...
