Expanding the Bounds of Seated Virtual Workspace
summary
Implemented head-orientation counter-rotation that lets a 60° window per virtual display span either 180° (3 displays) or 300° (5 displays) while keeping neck motion small. Study 1 (n=16) compares no assist, 2× constant gain, 12.5° dead zone central mapping, and per-display boundary switches; boundary switches yield similar accuracy, lower neck fatigue and faster selection, preferred for 3 displays. Study 2 builds a usable workspace with Logitech mixed reality keyboard and trackpad; implicit boundary-based auto-rotation is preferred (~66%), explicit keys used ≈45% of transitions.
