    摘要: A method for moving and orienting an object in a virtual reality or augmented reality environment that uses a movement tool with multiple states that correspond to the actions that a user may take to manipulate the object. The movement tool may have a stored position and orientation that are applied directly to the object without the need for user input; if these parameters are not stored, the movement tool may enter a moving or placing state, and/or an orientation state where the user can set the position or orientation, respectively. Additional movement tool states may include a rotation state and a translation state. State-specific guides or controls may be shown in certain states of the movement tool. These tools may enable a user to perform accurate and intuitive actions to move, scale or rotate an object in an n-dimensional space with millimeter precision.
