A Hybrid Method Using Gaze and Controller for Targeting Tiny Targets in VR While Lying down
Virtual reality (VR) head-mounted displays (HMDs) can be used in a variety of body postures, including standing, sitting, and lying down (supine). If VRHMD can be used effectively even from the supine position...
