Title
A comparative study of computational value in visual cues used in positioning 3D objects
This paper explores the comparative computational values of using a variety of visual cues in 3D environments. The authors reflect upon the possible repercussions of computationally less expensive visual cues on users' ability to efficiently and accurately interact with three-dimensional images. This study compares the effectiveness of expensive soft shadows against less expensive hard shadows and expensive partial-occlusion (obtained by semi-transparent surface) against less expensive occlusion on users' ability to accurately position objects in imminent contact with other objects in a three-dimensional environment.
