Abstract :
In this paper, a 3D bimanual gestural interface using data gloves is presented. We build upon past contributions on gestural interfaces and bimanual interactions to create an efficient and intuitive gestural interface that can be used in immersive environments. The proposed interface uses the hands in an asymmetric style, with the left hand providing the mode of interaction and the right hand acting at a finer level of detail.
