Abstract
HMD (head mounted display) with built-in eye-tracker device has been put to practical use, and eye-gaze operation is not special in VR. However, if you use only your eyes for pointing task, there are various problems such as the problem of Midas Touch. Therefore, in this research, we made a prototype of pointing system that can switch the pointer control from eye-tracking to a controller device in VR space at user's preferred timing, and conducted a two-dimensional pointing experiment. As a result, it is found that this method is user-friendly for 2D pointing tasks in VR space.
