However, traditional dual-hand controllers like Gamepads impose high complexity and usability demands on users. This study designs and validates an IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit)-based single-hand control system, assessing its practicality and effectiveness through experiments. The results indicate that the proposed controller provides a positive tendency in immersion. Additionally, a quantitative evaluation method for the complexity of drone test courses is proposed and its validity is proved.Attribution 4.0 International LicenseCCS Concepts: Human-centered computing → Usability testing; Gestural input; Laboratory experimentsHuman centered computing → Usability testingGestural inputLaboratory experimentsAn IMU-Based Drone Controller and Its Pilot Evaluation10.2312/egve.202413942 pages
