This study explored interactions between users and a 3D virtual world using a multi-touch display and sought to identify the advantages of this form of interaction. An experiment was conducted with 28 subjects, who were classified into two groups: experienced gamers and casual gamers. The experiment involved a pseudo-universe, where users were required to find five objects using the multi-touch display, and five objects using a game controller (GamePad). Overall, multi-touch was slightly faster than the GamePad in the search for objects. Experienced users performed significantly better when using the GamePad, compared to casual gamers. When casual gamers were analyzed separately, their performance was better (at a statistically significant level) with the multi-touch display, compared to the GamePad. Finally, users had a significantly higher error rate when switching from the GamePad to the keyboard, than when switching from the multi-touch to the keyboard.

这项研究使用多点触摸显示器探索了用户与3D虚拟世界之间的互动，并试图确定这种互动形式的优势。对28位受试者进行了实验，他们分为两组：经验丰富的游戏玩家和休闲游戏玩家。实验涉及一个伪宇宙，其中要求用户使用多点触摸显示器找到五个对象，并使用游戏控制器（GamePad）找到五个对象。总体而言，多点触摸在搜索对象方面比GamePad稍快。与休闲游戏玩家相比，有经验的用户在使用GamePad时的表现要好得多。当分别分析休闲游戏玩家时，与GamePad相比，多点触控显示器的性能更好（在统计上显着水平）。最后，
