[Poster] The Posture Angle Threshold between Airplane and Window Frame Metaphors

Integrating different mental models and the corresponding interaction techniques for navigation and object manipulation tasks is a topic of concern for providing user interfaces for the wide variety of potential users. With a user controlled, egocentric hand-held device we aim at integrating the so far identified three major interaction techniques based on the metaphors of a steering wheel, a toy airplane and a window frame. Here, specifically the toy airplane and the window frame contradict each other, leaving the issue at which postural angle of the hand-held device the mental model of the users changes.     «
