Abstract

By combining an aerial display, user tracking system, and virtual reality (VR) space, we realized an aerial interface for providing both an immersive user experience and real-time communication with people outside the device. We developed a simple application for detecting user contact and changing the color of an object to measure the latency of our aerial interface system.
