Experiences with mouse control in multi-display environments
Manuela Waldner, Dieter Schmalstieg · 2010
It is now increasingly common to extend private workstations with large public displays into a shared multi-display environment (MDE). Mouse-based interaction across multiple displays provides a convenient way to quickly shift between private work on the personal monitor and tightly coupled collaboration on shared display spaces (Figure 1). However, mouse pointer navigation can be negatively influenced by display factors in the environment and thereby limit fluid interaction across displays. We report findings from an experiment comparing four mouse pointer navigation techniques in a heterogeneous MDE.
