  • Abstract
    In this poster, we present a low-fatigue VR travel framework which provides smooth transition between three types of travel metaphors, walking, Segway and surfboard, with one multi-touch device. Our thought is that by mapping non-dominate-hand gestures to lower body motion, users can travel in a low-fatiguing and intuitive way while working on other VR tasks like picking up objects or moving virtual widgets with their dominant hand.
