Abstract

3D object selection and manipulation is one of the essential features for any augmented reality (AR) system. However, distant object selection and manipulation still suffer from lack of accuracy and precision. This paper introduces an alternate 3D interaction technique for selection and manipulation distant 3D object in in immersive video see-through AR. The proposed interaction technique offers a high precision when selecting and manipulation distant objects thanks to the zooming-based idea. This later, allows bringing closer both real and virtual objects during maintaining the spatio-temporal registration between the virtual and the real scenes. The evaluation of our proposed approach and the comparison with other well-known techniques are given at the end of this paper.
