Abstract

In this paper, we try to compare standard and low latency mid-air 3D interactions in a tabletop user interface. For this purpose, we developed a 3D tabletop user interface that allows direct manipulation of 3D virtual objects presented on an autostereoscopic display. The system uses a high-speed stereo camera to synchronize real hands and virtual objects, both temporally and spatially, with a high degree of accuracy. In the developed system, we realized a processing speed resulting in a frame rate of 200 fps and a latency of 28.33 ms. We conducted a user study for evaluating the usability and sense of reality and the results showed that there was a significant difference in the time required to complete an object moving operation between the 200 fps and 30 fps cases.
