Abstract :
Volumetric displays, which enable true 3D image visualization, hold the promise of enhancing rendered 3D graphics´ sense of realism by providing all the depth cues humans require. Although still in the prototype stage, 3D volumetric displays present unique user interface challenges. The authors use physical mock-ups to explore solutions to interaction styles for 3D volumetric displays
