Abstract

We want to present a multimodal user interface for interaction with the virtual environment back-projected on the large projection screen. We use the interaction metaphor of a "spell-casting" wizard (the user) using a "magic wand" to interact with the VR environment and to complete some tasks. Our contribution is an user interface, which tries to take advantage of the past experience of the user such as fairy-tales or fantasy movies.
