  • Abstract
    TractorBeam is a hybrid point-touch interaction technique for tabletop computer displays that seamlessly combines remote pointing and local touch. Results from studies investigating its use for target selection, docking, and puzzle tasks give some positive results, but further tests on its usefulness in collaborative activities are necessary
