N2 - As an input device suitable for operation in VR space, we developed a prototype in 2003. Comparison experiment results with other input devices, including game controllers, showed that our prototype had learnability and memorability advantages; that is, this device is suitable for intuitive operation in VR space. After the improvement of the device, it was placed on the market under the name Cyberbird. Moreover, we experimentally proposed the best combinations between a 3-DOF analog stick and two buttons on Cyberbird and six movements of drones: pitch, roll, yaw, throttle, take-off and landing. This article introduces the results of the experiment evaluating the usability of Cyberbird for older people and students unfamiliar with playing TV games using a game controller.
