Abstract:

We present the results of two experiments to evaluate the effectiveness of different mouse-based techniques for rotating and translating 2D objects. We compare two dual-mouse techniques against two single-mouse techniques. Initially, the two single-mouse techniques outperform both the dual-mouse techniques. However, after two hours of exposure to the four techniques, one of the dual-mouse techniques significantly outperforms the other techniques.
