Pocket6 - A 6DoF Controller Based on a Simple Smartphone Application

Explore a conference talk presenting Pocket6, an innovative smartphone application that functions as a six-degrees-of-freedom (6DoF) controller. Learn about the implementation and evaluation of this app-based approach, which achieves high accuracy comparable to expensive externally tracked controllers. Discover the advantages of this accessible solution that requires only an off-the-shelf smartphone without external trackers, markers, or wearables. Understand how its inside-out tracking and automatic remapping algorithm enable comfortable 3D inputs in various settings and postures. Examine the application's versatility in 2D and 3D object manipulation, demonstrating its potential for diverse real-world scenarios. This 29-minute presentation, recorded at the ACM Symposium on Spatial User Interaction in Berlin, offers insights into a simple yet powerful tool for spatial user interaction.
