28. Amount Based Interaction
a) not wanted parameter is covered
uncovered = 1, covered = 0
b) wanted parameter is covered
covered = 1, uncovered = 0

37. A human centred approach to Virtual Reality
Developing systems and methods
to aid human centred development
e.g. ACTIF-an interactor centric interaction framework,
biophysiological measurement of user experience,
dramaturgical elements for VR and affective CG
Exploring support for a
full sensory experience
e.g. olfaction, 3D audio, a spatial soundfloor
Exploring into
„post-WIMP“ interaction
e.g. the ChairIO,
Navigation & Interaction Toolkits for VR,
Shape-Based Interaction
