and most importantly, natural movements, rather than with
buttons and joysticks.
for large display contexts, a tracked handheld device, the hand

works from any location and makes sense for multiple users.
mobile devices offer a key opportunity for 3D interaction design,
however, because they are ubiquitous, they have their own
display, and they can do spatial input without the need for any
external tracking infrastructure (cameras, base stations, etc.).
