| Abstract | This paper describes a series of interactive 3D range setting components, each designed for application in shared multi-user 3D environments. The nature of multi-user environments creates the necessity for interactive 3D interface components to be able to function when viewed from a range of different perspectives at the same point in time. The three described components were designed with this requirement in mind. The first component, a 3DBubble based system, utilizes a simple sphere that expands and contracts on an axis device to represent changing range values. The second component uses a cone shaped spring device, the 3DSpiral, with a sliding ball that moves along the spring to enable interaction, range viewing and value setting. The final device is a simple cylinder, the 3DCylinder, with a ring that moves along its shape to set changes in range value. An experimental trial of 78 participants was carried out and involved each participant using the three 3D components, with an additional control group for comparison (using a 2D slider), to set range values. Results from the trial showed that the 3DBubble and 3DSpiral achieved outcomes that matched the control (2DSlider) in terms of accuracy of result and time taken to complete task. The advantage of the 3DBubble and the 3DSpiral was that they performed consistently from multiple points of view and that this was significantly better than both the control and the 3DSlider, both of which performed poorly when viewed from anything other than a front, square on angle. These results indicate that the 3DBubble and 3DSpiral offer potential for use in setting range values in multi-user 3D environments. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
