[ISEA2009] Paper: Kyle Buza – Intimate bidirectional interaction between external displays and mobile devices

Abstract

We describe a system and technique for allowing mobile device-carrying users to leverage camera-equipped external displays to enhance their ability to manage, navigate, and interact with data sets of varying size. In particular, we have built a system that allows users to use external displays as an extension of their own device display through the transfer of selected device context to the external display itself. The user may then navigate and interact with this data using the device. We also demonstrate a more general use case, supporting a public kiosk-style of interaction, wherein multiple users have the ability to affect the content visible on the external display. These users may select and transfer any of this content to the device, where
it may be interacted with and sent back to the display for future visitors to experience or modify.
