Bimanual and Unimanual Image Alignment: An Evaluation of Mouse-Based Techniques

Abstract:
I present an evaluation of three mouse-based techniques for aligning digital images. I discuss the physical image alignment task and the implications for interacting with virtual images. In a formal evaluation I show that a symmetric, dual-mouse technique outperforms an asymmetric dual-mouse technique which in turn outperforms a single-mouse technique. I show that even after mode switching times are removed, the symmetric technique outperforms the single mouse technique.
Note that she is practicing for UIST, so ask hard questions.
