With the spread of virtual reality, eye tracker embedded VR headset gradually becomes a trend. A company such as Fove has already released its eye-tracking VR headset. However, the relatively low frame rate of eye tracker in VR HMD (e.g. 90 fps) makes tracking unstable with consumption of computing power. Understanding relations between gaze direction and head direction would be helpful, for example, to predict and compensate eye tracking with head tracking. In this research, a unity project consisted of a moving object with variable parameters was created to examine if there’s correlation exists between players’ head direction and gaze direction in eye’s smooth pursuit movement. Furthermore, object parameters, shape, color, distance, speed and horizontal moving degree were tested to explore whether they can elicit statistically significant differences in gaze prediction. Results revealed that while smoothly pursuing a moving object with the gaze, people’s horizontal and vertical component of head direction and gaze direction are separately linearly correlated. Moreover, formulas were calculated via linear regression to express their relations. As for object parameters, significant impacts were detected for all five parameters and interaction effect of speed and horizontal moving degree with various effect size, partial eta squared.

Med spridningen av den virtuella verkligheten blir Eye Tracking-inbyggd VR-headset gradvis en trend. Ett företag som Fove har redan släppt sitt Eye Tracking VR-headset. Emellertid gör den relativt låga bildhastigheten för ögonspårare i VR HMD (t.ex. 90 fps) spårning ostabil med förbrukning av datorkraft. Att förstå relationer mellan blickriktning och huvudriktning skulle vara till hjälp, till exempel för att förutsäga och kompensera ögonspårning med huvudspårning. I den här undersökningen, var ett Unity-projekt bestående av ett rörligt objekt med varierande parametrar skapad för att undersöka om det finns korrelation mellan spelarens huvudriktning och blickriktning i ögonens följerörelse. Dessutom testades objektparametrar; form, färg, avstånd, hastighet och horisontell rörelsegrad för att undersöka huruvida de kan framkalla statistiskt signifikanta skillnader i blickprediktionen. Resultaten avslöjade att medan man rör sig smidigt med ett rörligt föremål med blicken, är människornas horisontella och vertikala komponent i huvudriktning och blickriktning separat linjärt korrelerad. Dessutom beräknades formler via linjär regression för att uttrycka deras relationer. När det gäller objektparametrar detekterades signifikanta effekter för alla fem parametrarna och interaktionseffekten av hastighets-och horisontell rörelsegrad med olika effektstorlek, partiell Eta-kvadrat.

Sur la base d’une enquête de terrain originale, réalisée sur une année scolaire, auprès de 6 collèges du Bas-Rhin, nous avons choisi de mettre les professeurs principaux de troisième au centre de notre recherche. Les professeurs principaux sont des acteurs privilégiés de l’orientation. Ce sont eux qui vont avoir un contact continu avec l’élève et ils sont sans nul doute les professionnels les mieux armés pour appréhender l’élève dans toute sa complexité et dans sa globalité. Ils sont ceux qui pourront l’orienter en continu et nouer un contact privilégié avec les familles.Ils sont également les porte-parole de l’ensemble de l’équipe éducative, participent, mènent les différents conseils de classe et peuvent donc peser ou influencer sur les décisions d’orientation. Néanmoins, ne nous y trompons pas, le rôle des professeurs principaux est plus complexe à tenir qu’il n’y paraît. Ils sont soumis à une somme de contraintes et de pressions formelles et informelles, explicites ou implicites, conscientes ou non. Face à ces constats, nous pouvons nous interroger sur : le rôle du professeur principal acteur majeur de l’orientation scolaire et producteur d’inégalités.

On the basis of an original field survey conducted over a school year, with 6 colleges in Bas-Rhin, we chose to place the Head teachers of the 4th year of high school (french 3eme) at the central point of our research. Head teachers are key actors in Educational guidance. They are the ones that will have continuous interactions with the Student and are undoubtedly the best prepared professionals to understand the Student in all its complexity and in its entirety. Head teachers will be the only referent to guide students and continuously forge close and privileged contacts with families. Moreover, they are also the spokesperson for the whole educational team, participate and lead various class councils and can therefore impact or influence on policy decisions. However, let us make no mistake, the role of head teachers is more difficult to hold than it seems. They are subject to a sum of constraints and to diverse aspects of pressure: formal and informal, explicit or implicit, conscious or unconscious. Given these facts, we can ask ourselves on the role of the head teacher as the main actor of Educational guidance and producer of inequalities.

▼ Rats learn to navigate to a specific location faster in a familiar environment (Keith and Mcvety 1988). It has been proposed that place learning does not require specific reward signals, but rather, that it occurs automatically. One of the strongest pieces of evidence for the automatic nature of place learning comes from the observation that place and head direction cells reference their receptive fields to prominent landmarks in an environment without needing a reward signal (O’Keefe and Conway 1978; Taube et al. 1990b). It has also been proposed that an allocentric representation of an environment would be bound to the landmarks with the greatest relative stability to guide its orientation (O’Keefe and Nadel 1978). The first two parts of this thesis explore whether place and head direction cells automatically use the most coherent landmarks for orientation. Head direction cells have been shown to orient their preferred firing directs coherently when being exposed to conflicting landmarks in an environment (Yoganarasimha et al. 2006). A model of head direction cells was thus used to explore the necessary mechanisms required to implement an allocentric system that selects landmarks based on their relative stability. We found that the simple addition of Hebbian projections combined with units representing the orientation of landmarks to the head direction cell system is sufficient for the system to exhibit such a capacity. We then recorded both entorhinal head direction cells and CA1 place cells and at the same time subjected the rats to repeated experiences of landmark conflicts. During the conflicts a subset of landmarks always maintained a fixed relative relationship with each other. We found that the visual landmarks retained their ability to control the place and head direction cells even after repeated experience of conflict and that the simultaneously recorded place cells exhibited coherent representations between conflicts. However, the ’stable landmarks’ did not show significantly greater control over the place and head direction cells when comparing to the unstable landmarks. This argues against the hypothesis that the relative stability between landmarks is encoded automatically. We did observe a trend that, with more conflict experience, the ’stable landmarks’ appeared to exert greater control over the cells. The last part of the thesis explores whether goal sensitive cells (Ainge et al. 2007a) discovered from CA1 of hippocampus are developed due to familiarity with the environment or from the demands for rats to perform a win-stay behaviour. We used the same win-stay task as in Ainge et al. and found that there were few or no goal sensitive cells on the first day of training. Subsequent development of goal sensitive activity correlated significantly with the rat’s performance during the learning phase of the task. The correlation provides support to the hypothesis that the development of goal sensitive cells is associated to the learning of the win-stay task though it does not rule out the possibility…

▼ Augmented reality (AR) systems that use head mounted displays to overlay synthetic imagery on the user's view of the real world require accurate viewpoint tracking for quality applications. However, achieving accurate registration is one of the most significant unsolved problems within AR systems, particularly during dynamic motions in unprepared environments. As a result, registration error is a major issue hindering the more widespread growth of AR applications. The main objective for this thesis was to improve dynamic orientation tracking of the head using low-cost inertial sensors. The approach taken within this thesis was to extend the excellent static orientation sensing abilities of accelerometers to a dynamic case by utilising a model of head motion. Head motion is modelled by an inverted pendulum, initially for one degree of rotational freedom, but later this is extended to a more general two dimensional case by including a translational freedom of the centre of rotation. However, the inverted pendulum model consists of an unstable coupled set of differential equations which cannot be solved by conventional solution approaches. A unique method is developed which consists of a highly accurate approximated analytical solution to the full non linear tangential ODE. The major advantage of the analytical solution is that it allows a separation of the unstable transient part of the solution from the stable solution. The analytical solution is written directly in terms of the unknown initial conditions. Optimal initial conditions are found that remove the unstable transient part completely by utilising the independent radial ODE. Thus, leaving the required orientation. The methods are validated experimentally with data collected using accelerometers and a physical inverted pendulum apparatus. A range of tests were performed demonstrating the stability of the methods and solution over time and the robust performance to increasing signal frequency, over the range expected for head motion. The key advantage of this accelerometer model-based method is that the orientation remains registered to the gravitational vector, providing a drift free solution that outperforms existing, state of the art, gyroscope based methods. This proof of concept, uses low-cost accelerometer sensors to show significant potential to improve head tracking in dynamic AR environments, such as outdoors.

▼ Behavior of pedestrians who are moving or standing still close to the street could be one of the most significant indicators about pedestrian’s instant future actions. Being able to recognize the activity of a pedestrian, can reveal significant information about pedestrian’s crossing intentions. Thus, the scope of this thesisis to investigate ways and methods to improve understanding ofpedestrian´s activity and in particular detecting their motion and head orientation in relation to the surrounding traffic. Furthermore, different features and methods are examined, used and assessed according to their contribution on distinguishing between different actions. Feature extraction methods considered are Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG), Local Binary Patterns (LBP) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). The features are extracted by processing still images of pedestrians from the Joint Attention for Autonomous Driving (JAAD) dataset. The images are extracted from video frames depicting pedestrians walking next to the road or crossing the road are used. Based on the features, a number of Machine Learning (ML) techniques(CNN, Artificial Neural Networks, Support Vector Machines, K-Nearest Neighbor and Decision Trees) are used to predict the head orientation, motion as well as the intention of the pedestrian. The work is divided into three parts, the first is to combine feature extraction and ML to predict pedestrian’s action regarding if they are walking or not. The second is to identify the pedestrian's head orientation in terms of if he/she is looking at the vehicle or not, this is also done by combining feature extraction and ML. The final task is to combine these two measures in a ML-basedclassifier that is trained to predict the pedestrian´s crossing intention and action. In addition to the pedestrian’s behavior for estimating the crossing intention, additional features about the local environment were added as input signals for the classifier, for instance, information about the presence of zebra markings in the street, the location of the scene, and weather conditions.

▼ textabstractThis thesis presents the results of oculomotor recordings obtained with a new type of scleral induction coil with which horizontal, vertical and torsional eye movements were measured simultaneously. In Chapter II, the stability of gaze in these three dimensions was measured in eight emmetropic observers. Subjects held the head still or oscillated it at 0.16~0.67 Hz (amplitude about 10 deg) in the horizontal, vertical or torsional plane while fixating a point target at optical infinity. Veridical gaze and head coordinates were calculated with full correction for non-linear goniometric relations and for cross-coupling artifacts due to misalignments of the coil on the eye. The amount of gaze instability in the horizontal and vertical direction was virtually identical. With the head still, in either of these directions the mean standard deviation of gaze position (inclusive saccades) was about 7 min arc; mean non-saccadic retinal image speeds were 20-30 min arcjsec. During head oscillation these values increased to about 16 min arc and 1 deg/sec; a mean of about 2.5% of the head motion remained uncorrected by the compensatory eye movements. Gaze stability in the torsional plane was considerably inferior to that in the horizontal and vertical plane. With the head held still, the mean S.D. position was about 17 min arc; (short-term drift) of torsional gaze mean torsional non-saccadic retinal image speed was about 46 min arcjsec. Long-term drift, expressed as the S.D. of the mean of torsional gaze position in consecutive zero position measurements, was 2.14 deg. Gain of the torsional compensatory eye movements was frequency dependent and rose from about 0.26 in static conditions (0 HZ') tO~-:about 0.42 at 0.16 Hz and 0.64 at 0.67 Hz. The validity of Listing's law was reinvestigated in Chapter III by means of a direct test. Either eye of 4 subjects was measured monocularly. Eye positions were measured in Fick coordinates and ocular torsion values were compared to the theoretical ones predicted by Listing's law. During consecutive measurements in the primary position torsion values were close to zero although considerable fluctuations of torsion were seen. Short-term drift was about 8' min arc and long-term drift about 1.64 deg. Torsion values in the secondary positions were also close to zero. In the tertiary positions torsion in the direction as predicted by Listing's law and increasing with eccentricity was recorded. In the temporal quadrants mean torsion was quantitatively in agreement with Listing's law; torsion values in the nasal quadrants however showed systematically larger values and this discrepancy increased with eccentricity to more than 50%. Statistical support for this finding however, was seen only in 4 out of 8 eyes. Symmetry could be obtained by shifting the chosen horizontal primary position (gaze parallel to the midplane) in the temporal direction; as a consequence all measured torsion ·values would exceed the ones specified by Listing's law. Torsion values varied idiosyncratically among…

▼ Fine-grain head pose estimation from imagery is an essential operation for many human-centered systems, including pose independent face recognition and human-computer interaction systems. It is only recently that estimation systems have evolved past a coarse level classification of pose and concentrated on fine-grain estimation. In particular, the state of the art of such systems consists of nonlinear manifold embedding techniques, such as Locally Linear Embedding and Isomap, that capture the intrinsic relationship of a pose varying face dataset. The success of these solutions can be attributed to the acknowledgment that image variation corresponding to pose change is nonlinear in nature. Yet, these algorithms are limited by the complexity of embedding functions that describe the relationship and provide no clear method for projecting novel data to the latent space. On the other hand, linear methods and nonlinear approximation techniques permit a simple embedding process, but lack the representational quality to globally describe the nonlinear image variation. In this dissertation, a pose estimation framework that seeks to describe the global nonlinear relationship in terms of localized linear functions is presented. A locally tuned nonlinear manifold is formulated using a two-layer system based on the assumptions that coarse pose estimation can be performed adequately using supervised linear methods, and fine pose estimation can be achieved using linear regressive functions if the scope of the pose manifold is limited. The localized linear approach results in a simplistic model for which probe input can be embedded through a cascade of linear transformations. Additionally, new methods for modeling the localized structures using feature enhanced Canonical Correlation Analysis are developed, where pose variation is regarded as a continuous variable and is represented by a manifold in feature space. The feature enhanced methods are used to identify the modes of correlation between the observed input images and the head pose angle. These techniques exploit oriented filters which serve two key purposes: (a) eliminate noise features, while boosting image elements that are associated with head pose (b) provide multiple dimensions of the input, allowing the correlation analysis process to extract more basis vectors to provide higher accuracy. A pose estimation system is implemented utilizing simple linear subspace methods, phase congruency, and Gabor features. The framework is tested using conventional test strategies and widely accepted pose-varying face databases. The proposed method is first tested using homogeneous datasets, where the training and testing face images are sampled from the same database. The generalization capabilities of the system are then tested using heterogeneous tests, where the training data is taken from a different database than the testing set. The proposed system is shown to perform fine head pose estimation with competitive accuracy when compared with state of the art nonlinear manifold… Advisors/Committee Members: Asari, Vijayan (Committee Chair).

▼ The development of robot is entering a new stage where the focus is placed on interaction with people in their daily environments. The concept of service robot is rapidly emerging. The service robot will act as a peer providing mental, communicational, and physical support. Such interactive tasks are of importance for allowing robots to take part in human society. Many robots have already been applied to various fields like hospital, school, day care center, museum and so on in daily environment. In museum context, guide robot needs to interact with the visitors in a natural way. Although much research has already been conducted in the area of non-verbal communication between a guide robot and human, such as facial expression, eye-gaze, and gesture commands, whether create and control spatial formation with the multiple visitors is also a fundamental function for the museum guide robots that remain unexplored. Drawing upon psychological and sociological studies on the spatial relationship between human, it is considered that museum guide robots should have also the capability to create and control spatial formation in various situations.The research questions that we seek to address in this area are as follows: What are the constraints to create spatial formation with the visitors? How does guide robot create spatial formation with the visitors before start its explanation of any exhibit? Can the robot attract visitor's attention to creates spatial formation properly? Can the guide robot indentify interested bystanders and invite them into an ongoing explanation session and thus reconfigure spatial formation? Can the robot reconfigure spatial formation during explaining multiple exhibits collectively? How does guide robot initiate conversation with the multiple visitors?This dissertation seeks to find answers to these questions by incrementally exploring the constraints to create spatial formation and developed an integrated model to configure spatial formation with the visitors in various situations. We began by observing and videotaping scenes of actual museum galleries where human guides explained exhibits to multiple visitors. Based on these analyses of the video, we developed a mobile robot system able to create and control spatial formation while guiding multiple visitors inside the gallery from one exhibit to another. We evaluate the guide robot system in a series of study that focuses on different situations where guide robot creates spatial formation with the visitors.

▼ Traditionally, humans have viewed robots as a “mechanical machines”, designed to perform a variety of industrial tasks. But within the last decades, the reality of robots is quite different from the traditional view and has enabled us to start developing social robots to support humans in their daily activities. The concept of the social robot is rapidly emerging and gradually being introduced as a part of human society where interaction among humans and social robots seems to be important to provide mental, communicational, and physical support to humans in society. As a consequence, many social robots have already been deployed in social spaces, where humans interact with reactive services in which social robots wait until the human proactively seeks services. Nevertheless, nowadays we are moving in a direction where we introduce social robots in social spaces with the ability to proactively offer services to humans in which social robots estimate human intentions, and can offer services only to those who would need it. To achieve such capabilities, social robots should have the capacity to observe human behaviors so that they can easily identify humans who are in need. But, observing human behaviors is a challenging task for social robots. This dissertation deals with making human-robot interaction systems capable of observing human behaviors so that social robots can understand their intentions, interests, and preferences concerning surrounding environments. Our findings will help social robots to proactively offer services to those humans who may want to be serviced. In this dissertation, a real life museum guide robot scenario is considered as a testbed for my proactive social robotics research.The first part of the work is on developing a guide robot system which observes people’s interests and intentions towards paintings in museum scenarios and proactively offers guidance to them using a guide robot, if needed. To do that, multiple USB video camera sensors are utilized to support the guide robot in detecting and tracking people’s visual focus of attention (VFOA) toward paintings. Further, each person’s head orientation and profile information and computed importance values are considered as local behavior to identify a target-person that may be interested in a particular painting. After identifying the target-person, the guide robot moves autonomously through an appropriate motion path from the so called public-distance to his/her social-distance to explain details about the painting to which s/he is interested. Furthermore, the viability of the proposed guide robot system is demonstrated by experimenting with the Robovie-R3 as a museum guide robot. Finally, the system is tested to validate its effectiveness. Continuing to improve the recognition of people’s interests, intentions, and preferences concerning paintings in the museum, a network enabled sensing system is designed and implemented by incorporating different sensing modalities in combination where sensors are distributed in the environments as…

▼ Struck-by accidents are a leading cause of traumatic brain injuries in the construction industry. While hard hats are the conventional means of industrial head protection, the current test standard to evaluate hard hat performance does not assess their ability to mitigate head accelerations from such impacts. To address this gap in knowledge, three investigations were pursued as part of this thesis. First, a variety of commercially available hard-hat designs – differentiated by shell design, number of suspension points, and suspension tightening system – were tested for their ability to attenuate accelerations during vertical impacts to the head. All hard-hats appreciably reduced head acceleration to the unprotected condition. However, neither the addition of extra suspension points nor variations in suspension tightening mechanism appreciably influenced performance. Second, the same hard hat designs were tested for their ability to attenuate head accelerations when subjected to impacts in two different head orientations – upright and forward-flexed by 30°. Impacts to the forward-flexed head resulted in the largest measured angular accelerations, and hard-hats were least effective at mitigating angular accelerations in this head position. Additionally, no correlations were observed between hard hat performance in an upright head orientation versus forward-flexed orientation. Results from this study provide insight into why impacts to a forward-flexed head are prevalent in epidemiological data, and also suggest that current hard-hat designs may not be optimized for impacts to a forward-flexed head. Lastly, a validated finite element model of a hard-hat was developed that accounted for more geometric detail than other models previously seen in literature. This validation process highlighted the importance of specific design features present in a hard-hat (such as headband attachments) and their influence in construction worker’s safety against head injuries. Taken together, the work here represents a significant advance towards improving occupational safety in the construction sector.

▼ A high cervical spinal cord injury can result in significant loss of function below the shoulders. Often, this function is restored through the use of adaptive computer technology or neuroprostheses. While these devices can help to restore function, they need a viable user interface. This project investigated the command sources available to an individual with high tetraplegia. A novel means of command source evaluation was developed for both 2D and 3D command sources. This included the use of original performance measures that served to illustrate the underlying aspects of performance. Two command sources applicable to the SCI community were studied, head orientation and EMG of muscles of the face and neck. Able bodied subjects and an individual with an implanted neuroprosthesis with implanted EMG electrodes participated in a 2D Fitts’ Law task controlling a computer cursor using the command sources under investigation. The performance of a computer mouse was also explored. Performance was similar between subject populations. Head orientation was the superior command source over EMG for cursor control as it was much less affected my target direction. Users could more easily control two head orientations simultaneously to move to diagonal targets where EMG was used in a more sequential manner. In a novel 3D, out-center Fitts’ Law task, able-bodied subjects used each command source as well as three-axis joystick to control the end-point of a robot arm and the performances evaluated. All three command sources exhibited similar behavior and performance as all were used in a sequential manner, producing a large effect of target dimensionality upon performance. Given its ease of implantability, EMG is the better choice for control of an implanted neuroprosthesis for restoration of hand and arm function. The use of multiple performance measures in both tasks served to better portray the various aspects that make up the overall performance of a user interface. The use of a single summary measure alone is not enough, particularly when target dimensionality can have such a dramatic effect. Advisors/Committee Members: Kirsch, Robert F. (Advisor).

▼ A question of wide importance in neuroscience is how the brain controls behavior. How does sensory information get transformed into a spatially organized representation about our current state in the world and how is this abstract representation utilized when producing motor commands that lead to successful navigation? When navigating in a complex environment, all animals must encode information about their position and orientation in a rich sensory environment. In vertebrates this may occur by means of distributed activity across several navigation circuits located in the hippocampal formation. Arthropods, however, lack a hippocampal formation and thus it is unclear what circuits mediate navigation. A wide range of studies indicate that the central complex (CX), is not only involved in directional sensory information processing and the control of motor commands, but also plays a role in orientation coding in polarized light guided navigation and landmark orientation. All of these neural mechanisms point in the direction that single neurons in the CX might be directly involved in head direction coding, as well as other aspects of adaptive navigation. In the work described in this dissertation I used multi-channel extracellular recording techniques to uncover the neural correlates of head direction coding and spatial context cues in the cockroach CX. Specifically, I used tetrodes to record the activity of single neurons in the CX while the animal was passively rotated around on a platform surrounded by a circular arena (Chapter 2). In the same setting I also recorded local field potentials (LPFs) in the CX to uncover how navigational information modulates the network’s activity in a more global manner (Chapter 3). I found that single units, as well as LFPs in the cockroach CX encode the animal’s head direction relative to a salient visual cue. However, when landmarks are not available to the animal, both single neuron and network-level activity can rely upon idiothetic motion cues to update the animal’s relative heading in a landmark-free setting. In addition to these results, I found that a subpopulation of single neurons and some of the LFP frequency bands encoded the rotation direction history of the animal, a common spatial context cue. These results suggest that the CX navigation circuit is involved in environmental context discrimination processes that might be utilized by spatial memory circuits in the insect brain.Taken together, these results provide a solid foundation for future studies on the neural basis of adaptive navigation in insects. By placing these results in a wider context of adaptive navigation in all animals and by comparing them to the mechanisms described in mammalian navigation circuits, these data also contribute to a broad comparative approach to understand the general principles of navigation, as well as the diversity of the neural substrates of navigation across evolutionarily distinct animals.

Les environnements à grands écrans (Large Display Environments, LDE) sont des espaces de travail interactifs contenant un ou plusieurs grands écrans fixes et divers dispositifs d'entrée ayant pour but de permettre la visualisation et la manipulation de très grands jeux de données. La recherche s'est de plus en plus intéressée à ces environnements durant ces dix dernières années, et il existe d'ores-et-déjà un certain nombre de techniques d'interaction correspondant à la plupart des tâches élémentaires comme le pointage, la navigation et la sélection de commandes. Cependant, ces techniques sont souvent conçues et évaluées séparément, dans des environnements et des cas d'utilisations spécifiques. Il est donc difficile de les comparer et de les combiner.Dans ce manuscrit, je propose un ensemble de guides pour l'analyse et la combinaison des canaux d'entrée et de sortie disponibles dans les LDEs. Je présente d'abord une étude de leurs caractéristiques selon deux axes: (1) le retour visuel, et la manière dont il affecte l'utilisabilité des techniques d'interaction et la collaboration co-localisée, et (2) les canaux d'entrée, et comment les combiner en d'efficaces ensembles de techniques d'interaction. Grâce à ces analyses, j'ai développé quatre pré-requis de conception destinés à assurer que des techniques d'interaction peuvent être utilisées (i) à distance, (ii) en même temps que d'autres techniques et (iii) avec d'autres utilisateurs. Suivant ces pré-requis, j'ai conçu et évalué un ensemble de techniques de navigation, d'invocation de commandes tout en pointant, et de pointage haute-précision avec des moyens d'entrée limités. J'ai également développé deux méthodes de calibration de techniques de pointage, l'une spécifique aux techniques ayant deux niveaux de précision et l'autre adaptée aux fonctions d'accélération. En conclusion, j'introduis deux considérations de plus haut niveau sur la combinaison de techniques d'interaction dans des environnements aux canaux d'entrée limités : (1) il existe un compromis entre le fait de minimiser l'utilisation des membres de l'utilisateur et celui d'effectuer des actions en parallèle qui affecte les performances de l'ensemble ; (2) changer la fonction de transfert d'une technique de pointage durant son utilisation peut avoir un effet négatif sur les performances.

Large display environments (LDEs) are interactive physical workspaces featuring one or more static large displays as well as rich interaction capabilities, and are meant to visualize and manipulate very large datasets. Research about mid-air interactions in such environments has emerged over the past decade, and a number of interaction techniques are now available for most elementary tasks such as pointing, navigating and command selection. However these techniques are often designed and evaluated separately on specific platforms and for specific use-cases or operationalizations, which makes it hard to choose, compare and combine them.In this dissertation I propose a framework and a set of guidelines for analyzing and…
