contents Mid-air navigation offers a method of aerial travel that mitigates the constraints associated with continuous navigation. A mid-air selection technique is essential to enable such navigation. In this paper, we consider four variations of intersection-based bimanual mid-air selection techniques with visual aids and supporting features: Simple-Ray, Simple-Stripe, Precision-Stripe, and Cursor-Sync. We evaluate their performance and user experience compared to an unimanual mid-air selection technique using two tasks that require selecting a mid-air position with or without a reference object. Our findings indicate that the bimanual techniques generally demonstrate faster selection times compared to the unimanual technique. With a supporting feature, the bimanual techniques can provide a more accurate selection than the unimanual technique. Based on our results, we discuss the effect of selection technique's visual aids and supporting features on performance and user experience for mid-air selection.
