Comparative study of the performances of several haptic modalities for a 3D menu

We introduce a new technique of haptic guidance, for navigation and control of applications in virtual environments. We haptically simulate the collisions of the pointer with the borders of a polyhedral menu, making it glide towards the items. We propose the preliminary results of an empirical evaluation of this technique.
