Evaluation of Direct Physics-Inspired Interaction for Mixed Reality Based on Optical See-Through Head-Mounted Displays

In this paper, we propose a mixed reality system consisting of a binocular optical see-through head-mounted display(OST-HMD) and a depth sensor. Based on the proposed system, participants perform manipulation tasks to experience the direct physics-inspired interaction mode. Moreover, we design an active selection rule for accurate detailed manipulation. The result indicates that although direct physics-inspired interaction mode is not sufficiently efficient, it shows an advantage regarding the humanization and attraction.
