Proxemic Interactions with Multi-artifact Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
The artifact ecologies emerging from an increasing number of interactive digital artifacts, capable of communicating with each other wirelessly, have created an interaction space where software applications are no longer limited by the physical boundaries of a single device. With the new opportunities follows an added complexity that interaction designers need to address. Previous work have shown the potential of proxemic interactions as one way of dealing with design challenges of ubicomp systems. However, the work focused on interactions involving multiple digital artifacts is limited. In this paper, we analyze two multi-artifact systems from our prior work within the domain of music consumption and identify four concepts of multi-artifact interactions: Plasticity, migration, complementarity, and multi-user. These concepts forms the basis for a discussion on the potential use of proxemic interactions in the design of multi-artifact systems. Keywordsartifact ecology, multi-artifact systems, proxemic interactions, music systems.

Proxemic Interactions: From Theory to Practice
In the everyday world, much of what we do as social beings is dictated by how we perceive and manage our interpersonal space. This is called proxemics. At its simplest, people naturally correlate physical distance to social distance. We believe that people’s expectations of proxemics can be exploited in interaction design to mediate their interactions with devices (phones, tablets, computers, a...
متن کاملNavigation Concepts for ZUIs Using Proxemic Interactions
Proxemics in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) offer new prospects for the design of explicit and implicit interaction techniques to support multiple users and a concurrent navigation for zoomable user interfaces (ZUI). In this paper we describe a navigation concept for zooming and panning based on a multi-display environment using proxemic relations as input (e.g. a user’s location and orientat...
متن کاملTowards an Application of Graph Structure Analysis to a MAS-based Model of Proxemic Distances in Pedestrian Systems
This paper proposes the use of methods for network analysis in order to study the properties of a dynamic graph that model the interaction among agents in an agent-based model. This model is based on Multi Agent System definition and simulates a multicultural crowd in which proxemics theory and distance perception are taking into account. After a discussion about complex network analysis and cr...
متن کاملOpportunities for Proxemic Interactions in Ubicomp (Keynote)
In this keynote presentation, I describe and illustrate proxemic interactions as realized in several projects in my laboratory. My goal is to advocate proxemics as a more natural way of mediating inter-entity interactions in ubiquitous computing environments, while still cautioning about the many pitfalls
متن کاملApplying Proxemics to Mediate People’s Interaction with Devices in Ubiquitous Computing Ecologies
Through vastly increasing availability of digital devices in people’s everyday life, ubiquitous computing (ubicomp) ecologies are emerging. An important challenge here is the design of adequate techniques that facilitate people’s interaction with these ubicomp devices. In my research, I explore how the knowledge of people’s and devices’ spatial relationships – called proxemics – can be applied ...
