3dui.org is the major online reference place for all those interested in the design, evaluation, and application of 3D user interfaces. In the resources section you’ll find a variety of online resources to help in your research or teaching related to 3D UIs. These resources include course notes and presentation materials, bibliographies, and links to other 3D UI sites.
Below we included a short list of relevant research papers and books related to classification of approaches in the field of 3D interaction techniques.
All these papers were written to aid both researchers and developers of interactive 3D applications in having a clearer overview of the topic and in particular can be useful for practitioners and researchers that are new to the field of interactive 3D graphics.
