Abstract :
We investigate a potentially low-cost multi-user computer pointing interface. Given a choice of four targets arranged on the screen, we looked at what the user´s preference is in visiting the targets with a hand-held light source. Our study reveals that our sample group has a preferred starting point when initiating the interaction sequence. In addition, we report how some users contorted their bodies during the study.
