Abstract :
In this study six different mode switching techniques (i.e. timeout mode switching, non-preferred hand mode switching, barrel button mode switching, pressure mode switching, tilt mode switching and azimuth mode switching) based on multiple parameters pen input are proposed. The results indicate that the techniques utilizing tilt angle and azimuth offer faster performance than the others.
