Abstract

Navigation is a key issue for Virtual Reality (VR) applications because it forms an integral part of the feeling of presence, which should be conveyed by VR applications. This paper presents several VR navigation modes which are useful for orientation and interaction in Virtual Environments (VEs). Due to the existence of different kinds of applications several navigation modes are required.
