Abstract
A method of smoothly transitioning between input devices with respect to a virtual reality environment is disclosed. A probable user input action is determined based on input data from a plurality of input devices. A best device is selected from the plurality of input devices based on a quality of a signal of the best device relative to qualities of signals of other devices of the plurality of input devices. Based on a determination that the selected best device is not the same as a previously selected best device from the plurality of devices, a transition between the previously selected device and the best selected device is determined and the transition is used to drive the probable user input action based on input data from the selected best device and input data from the previously selected best device.
