Fı́schlár-DiamondTouch: Collaborative Video Searching on a Table
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present the system we have developed for our participation in the annual TRECVid benchmarking activity, specifically the system we have developed, Fı́schlár-DT, for participation in the interactive search task of TRECVid 2005. Our back-end search engine uses a combination of a text search which operates over the automatic speech recognised text, and an image search which uses low-level image features matched against video keyframes. The two novel aspects of our work are the fact that we are evaluating collaborative, team-based search among groups of users working together, and that we are using a novel touch-sensitive tabletop interface and interaction device known as the DiamondTouch to support this collaborative search. The paper summarises the backend search systems as well as presenting the interface we have developed, in detail.

TetraTetris: A Study of Multi-User Touch-Based Interaction Using DiamondTouch
The DiamondTouch table is a touch-sensitive input device that allows several users to interact with a program at the same time and do so using their hands. We describe our exploration of the capabilities and limitations of the DiamondTouch by focusing on TetraTetris, one of the first nontrivial applications written specifically for the DiamondTouch hardware. TetraTetris is a multi-player game, ...

In this paper we describe a co-located interface on a tabletop device to support social competence training for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The interface has been developed on the multi-user DiamondTouch tabletop device as a 3-user application for two children and a facilitator (therapist or teacher). It takes advantage of the DiamondTouch table's unique ability to recognize multipl...
متن کاملRemoteDT: Support for Multi-Site Table Collaboration
Multi-user, interactive tabletops are an exciting new form factor to support collaborative group activities. To date, much of the research in this area has focused on co-located collaboration – groups of people seated around the same physical table. A natural step is to connect a co-located group working around a table to other remote sites, creating a shared collaborative environment. In this ...
متن کاملCollaboration with DiamondTouch
We study the performance of collaborative spatial/visual tasks under different input configurations. The configurations used are a traditional mouse-monitor, a shared-monitor with multiple-mice, and a multi-user input device (DiamondTouch). Our experiments indicate that there is a significant variation in performance for the different configurations with pairs of users, while there is no such v...

Collocated, multi-user technologies, which support groupwork are becoming increasingly popular. Examples include MERL’s Diamondtouch and Microsoft’s Surface, both of which have evolved from research prototypes to commercial products. Many applications have been developed for such technologies which support the work and entertainment needs of small groups of people. None of these applications ho...
