We introduce a new locomotion technique to provide users with an authentic feel of motion and movement in a zero gravity virtual environment. With our technique the user will be able to control their movement and direction by dragging, grabbing and pushing off of surfaces using their hands. In user experiments we compare different speed variation with com- pletion time and presence of the this technique in a zero gravity environment, to discover if applying a slower speed would give a better and more realistic experience and it’s correlation to comple- tion time. We found that participants generally preferred the medium speed level, but felt most present and that the locomotion was more realistic when applying the slowest speed.
