Multi-Touch with 3D on Nasa World Wind

In many different application domains the use of 3D visualization is accelerating. If the complexity of 3D data increases often stereoscopic display provides a better insight for domain experts as well as ordinary users. Usually, interaction with and visualization of the 3D data is decoupled because manipulation of stereoscopic content is still a
challenging task. Hence, 3D data is visualized stereoscopically whereas interaction is performed via 2D graphical user
interfaces. Although such interscopic interaction between
stereoscopic and monoscopic content is of major interest in
many application domains it has not been sufficiently investigated. While multi­touch has shown its usefulness for 2D interfaces by providing more natural and intuitive interaction, it has not been considered if and how these
concepts can be extended to 3D multi­touch interfaces, in
particular in combination with stereoscopic display.
