⭐ Core Definition: 3D user interaction

3D human–computer interaction is a form of human–computer interaction where users are able to move and perform interaction in 3D space. Both the user and the computer process information where the physical position of elements in 3D space is relevant. It largely encompasses virtual reality and augmented reality.

The 3D space used for interaction can be the real physical space, a virtual space representation simulated on the computer, or a combination of both. When the real physical space is used for data input, the human interacts with the machine performing actions using an input device that detects the 3D position of the human interaction, among other things. When it is used for data output, the simulated 3D virtual scene is projected onto the real environment through one output device.

3D user interaction in the context of Pose tracking

In 3D human-computer interaction, positional tracking, also called pose tracking, is a process that tracks the position and/or orientation of head-mounted displays, controllers, or other input devices within Euclidean space. Pose tracking is often referred to as 6DOF tracking, for the six degrees of freedom in which the objects are often tracked.

In some consumer GPS systems, orientation data is added additionally using magnetometers, which give partial orientation information, but not the full orientation that pose tracking provides.
