Abstract:
Example virtual reality controller apparatus are disclosed herein. An example controller for use with a virtual reality device implementing a virtual reality environment includes a base and a shaft supported by the base. The shaft includes a first control button associated with a first axis of a coordinate plane. The first control button is in communication with the virtual reality device. Activation of the first control button is to cause restriction of movement a virtual object in the virtual reality environment relative to the first axis. The shaft includes a second control button associated with a second axis of the coordinate plane. The second control button is in communication with the virtual reality device. Activation of the second control button is to cause restriction of movement of the virtual object in the virtual reality environment relative to the second axis.
