Virtual Reality systems are an essential element of the product development process, but common VR-user-interfaces still need intensive practice to be effectively used to solve tasks within Virtual Environments. This keeps especially non-expert-users from using the full potential of VR for evaluating virtual models during the product development process. In this article, we present a concept for an intuitive to use VR-user-interface based on a common tablet-PC. A rudimentary evaluation performed as a preliminary study showed an initial tendency for the usability of the implemented prototype.
