Abstract: Mobile virtual reality (MVR) provides low-cost access to extended reality (XR), but its limited input restricts use of common locomotion techniques such as head-decoupled and velocity-controlled steering. Using a low-cost controller with an audio-based button, we compared gaze- and controller-directed steering and teleportation in MVR. We included a controller pitch-based speed-control technique enabling continuous head-decoupled steering. Performance and participant feedback indicate that gaze was better suited to teleportation, whereas controller pointing better supports steering in primed search. We compare with similar techniques in standard VR and derive design considerations for low-cost, narrow-FOV hardware, demonstrating the potential to support varied travel techniques and velocity control in low-fidelity XR.
