Description The interaction techniques (ITs) that are used for object selection/manipulation are very important for easier and faster user interaction with objects in virtual environment (VE). Although research in this area is very intensive, few works are interested in possibility to combine these techniques with force feedback. In this paper we present short review of ITs for immersive VE. We discuss the possibilities to apply these ITs in non-immersive virtual environment with force feedback. We also show advantages and disadvantages of force feedback in VE and we try to adapt the methods to provide with better interaction.
