Chapter 12. Devices to Enable Navigation and Interaction
One of the most fundamental and essential baseline technology components of any virtual or augmented reality system is the mechanism with which a user navigates within and interacts with the simulation. In addition to dramatically extending the usefulness of these systems, it is considered crucial to the overall sense of immersion. In this chapter we explore a number of the current and emerging solutions being put forth, as well as look at why this single hardware component can determine the future of this industry.
