Abstract
We can create Virtual Reality (VR) interactions that have no equivalent in the real world by remapping spacetime or altering users' body representation, such as stretching the user’s virtual arm for selection and manipulation of distant objects or scaling up the user’s avatar to enable rapid locomotion in large virtual environments. Prior research has leveraged such approaches, what we call beyond-real techniques, to make interactions in VR more practical, efficient, ergonomic, and accessible. We present a survey categorizing prior VR interaction literature as reality-based, illusory, or beyond-real interactions. For beyond-real interaction, we describe the transformations that have been used by prior work to create novel remappings. We discuss open research questions through the lens of the human sensorimotor control system and highlight challenges that need to be addressed for effective utilization of beyond-real interactions in future VR applications, including plausibility, control, long-term adaptation, and individual differences.
