This project presents our solution to the 2025 3DUI Contest challenge!
We developed a collaborative, immersive experience that raises awareness about trash pollution in natural landscapes. In our experience, one user collects harmful pollutants while the other user provides medication to impacted wildlife using enhancements to traditional interaction techniques: HOMER and Fishing Reel. We enhanced HOMER to use a cone volume to reduce the precise aiming required by a selection raycast for more efficient pollutant collection, coined as FLOW-MATCH. To feed wildlife far away from the user, we created RAWR-XD, an asymmetric bi-manual technique to more conveniently adjust the Fishing Reel reeling speed using the user’s non-selecting wrist rotation.
