The field of human-computer interaction and virtual reality is rapidly evolving, with a focus on creating more intuitive and immersive experiences. Recent studies have explored the use of deceptive design in games and virtual reality, highlighting the need for ethical design guidelines to prevent manipulative practices. Meanwhile, advancements in haptic technology and mixed reality are enabling new forms of interaction and collaboration, such as the use of haptic gloves for navigation and mixed reality-based interfaces for robot navigation. Noteworthy papers in this area include one that proposed a novel non-contact gesture interaction control method for rehabilitation lower extremity exoskeletons, achieving a gesture-controlled exoskeleton motion accuracy of 94.11% and an average system response time of 0.615 seconds. Another paper presented a gaze-hand steering technique that combines eye-tracking with hand-pointing, enabling free look and reducing unintended actions in virtual environments.
