Air-drawing, or drawing without the use of a physical surface, is the dominant interaction metaphor for drawing or writing in Virtual Reality (VR). However, we typically use devices that are restricted to two-dimensional planes:mice, pen-and-paper, or the digital equivalent pen-and-tablet devices. We present results from a user study examining differences in performance, user-preference, and handwriting between two implementations of air drawing and passive haptic surface drawing.
