Evaluation of Hands-Free VR Interaction Methods During a Fitts’ Task: Efficiency and Effectiveness
Currently, it is standard to use tracked handheld controllers for interaction in immersive virtual reality (VR). However, since VR interactions are becoming more natural with hand tracking, it is important to provide hands-free alternatives for selection

Behavioral effects of continuous theta-burst stimulation in macaque parietal cortex
The neural mechanisms underlying the effects of continuous Theta-Burst Stimulation (cTBS) in humans are poorly understood. Animal studies can clarify the effects of cTBS on individual neurons, but behavioral evidence is necessary to demonstrate the ...

Variability in wrist-tilt accelerometer based gesture interfaces [PDF]
In this paper we describe a study that examines human performance in a tilt control targeting task on a PDA. A three-degree of freedom accelerometer attached to the base of the PDA allows users to navigate to the targets by tilting their wrist in ...
