HOG on a WIM
Aaron Stafford, Wayne Piekarski, Bruce Hunter Thomas · 2008
This paper presents a new interaction metaphor for mixed space collaboration: HOG on a WIM. Hand of god (HOG) on a world in miniature (WIM) is the first collaborative WIM. It enables a table-top display user to collaborate with a virtual reality (VR) user. The tabletop display user has a god's eye view of the virtual world and communicates with the VR user through natural gestures and speech. The VR user controls a WIM to navigate and manipulate the virtual world with the aid of the tabletop display user's guidance.
