PalmSpace system enables versatile on-palm interaction for MR devices

Researchers have developed PalmSpace, a novel wrist-worn system utilizing infrared radiation to enable versatile on-palm interaction for MR devices. This system overcomes limitations of previous on-palm interfaces by providing mode-aware, body-referenced absolute input without requiring per-user calibration. In evaluations with 17 participants, PalmSpace demonstrated high accuracy in contact detection and localization, achieving a mean localization error of 6.7 mm. The system supports various interactions, including absolute pointing, dragging, eyes-free digit input, and multi-finger controls like scrolling and pinch-based map manipulation, suggesting the palm can serve as a transferable and mode-aware interaction surface.
