Abstract :
A new method for analyzing 3D goal-directed movements provides more insights than existing approaches by dividing them into meaningful phases. An experiment applying a simple 3D task, resembling a standardized 2D multidirectional pointing task, yielded insights that can help researchers better identify input devices´ and interaction techniques´ strengths and weaknesses.
