Abstract
Three-dimensional, six degree of freedom input is explored in an interactive computer graphics environment. A particular device, the ROPAMS of Polhemus Navigational Sciences, Inc. is an accurate, unencumbering device based on electromagnetics. It is evaluated as a three-dimensional input device, and such input itself is evaluated for appropriateness and interactivity in a graphics environment. Emphasis is placed on human factors (pointing, body position) as a mode of interactivity.
