XJTLU, China

Abstract

In this talk, I will present the state of the art of spatial interfaces for 3D visualization. Interaction techniques are crucial to data visualization processes and the visualization research community has been calling for more research on interaction for years. I will introduce a taxonomy of interaction techniques which is organized along two axes: spatial interaction paradigms and interaction tasks for 3D visualization. I will further present the selection techniques for 3D point cloud data which take into consideration the structure of the dataset and users' intention
