Virtual environment (VE) user interfaces are evolving beyond traditional WIMP designs. New 3D interaction and multisensory technologies enhance VE applications, particularly in medicine.

Area of Science:

  • Computer Science
  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Virtual Reality

Background:

  • User interface (UI) design is crucial for virtual environment (VE) applications, especially in medicine.
  • Traditional WIMP interfaces are still used, but new interaction methods are emerging.
  • The diversity of VE interfaces is rapidly increasing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an overview of 3D interaction technologies for virtual environments.
  • To present emerging user interface technologies for VE.
  • To highlight advancements in VE UI design for medical applications.

Main Methods:

  • Review of traditional WIMP interface components.
  • Identification of proliferating nontraditional input devices (e.g., trackers, gestural input).
