Modeling Drone Pointing Movement with Fitts' Law
Description
Although numerous studies have focused on interfaces for maneuvering drones, a method for evaluating these interfaces has not been established. A pointing experiment was carried out with a drone in this study. The results indicate that the target distance and target width affect the movement time and error rate while maneuvering. This is consistent with the results of previous pointing studies. Fitts' law was not a good fit (R^2 = 0.672), while the data fit well to a two-part model (R^2 = 0.993). Based on these results, we propose future experimental work that could contribute to improving drone interfaces.
