ユーザの意図を考慮したマウスポインタ制御の提案

抄録

We propose an algorithm to control the velocity of a mouse pointer so that it approaches to the intended object on a display by a user. And we show its usefulness through experiments. First, we describe following two facts through experiments;
a usual user moves a mouse pointer not drawing a strait-line but drawing an arc,
a beginner has trouble to point an object in its neighborhood.
Based on the above, we propose an algorithm to control the pointer as follows;
calculate the position of an imaginary object as weighted average of candidate objects,
control the velocity of the mouse pointer so that it approaches to the imaginary object.
And we show that the proposed algorithm improves mouse operation through experiments with human testers.
