FaceTouch: Enabling Touch Interaction in Display Fixed UIs for Mobile Virtual Reality
summary
Prototype attaches a backside touchpad on HMD with five mounting buttons and maps a virtual plane to display-fixed UI elements, enabling pointing, lift-off correction and press-on commits. Two user studies (18 participants, Fitts’ Law) show viability: a low error rate around 2% in optimized conditions, better accuracy and speed when the pad is mounted on the back versus side or hand, and an estimated 95% success with larger targets; a text-entry demo reaches about 10 WPM.
