Tangible User Interfaces

چکیده
Where the sea meets the land, life has blossomed into a myriad of unique forms in the turbulence of water, sand, and wind. At another seashore between the land of atoms and the sea of bits, we are now facing the challenge of reconciling our dual citizenships in the physical and digital worlds. Our visual and auditory sense organs are steeped in the sea of digital information, but our bodies remain imprisoned in the physical world. Windows to the digital world are confined to flat square screens and pixels, or "painted bits." Unfortunately, one can not feel and confirm the virtual existence of this digital information through one's hands and body.

Tangible Augmented Reality
This paper advocates a new metaphor for designing threedimensional Augmented Reality (AR) applications, Tangible Augmented Reality (Tangible AR). Tangible AR interfaces combine the enhanced display possibilities of AR with the intuitive manipulation and interaction of physical objects or Tangible User Interfaces. We define what Tangible AR interfaces are, present some design guidelines and prot...
متن کاملDo Tangible User Interfaces Impact Spatial Cognition in Collaborative Design?
Developments in digital design workbenches that combine Augmented Reality (AR) systems and tangible user interfaces (TUIs) on a horizontal display surface provide a new kind of physical and digital environment for collaborative design. The combination of tangible interaction with AR display techniques change the dynamics of the collaboration and have an impact on the designers’ perception of 3D...

متن کاملTowards Tangible Enactive-Interfaces
This paper compares the disciplines of Enactive Interfaces and Tangible User Interface design with the aim of showing that by considering the design knowledge of Tangible User Interfaces with the cognitive depth of the theories of enaction, a new type of “enactive tangibleuser-interface” can be designed. Introductions to both disciplines are given, before a method of gauging the enactive potent...
متن کاملTangible Interfaces in Virtual Environments
Integrating Tangible User Interfaces (TUIs) in Virtual Environments is a promising approach to overcome the rigidity of Tangible User Interfaces (TUI) and to ease Virtual Reality (VR) interaction techniques. Advantages and problems of the integration are being described, especially occlusion, focal displacement and shifting.
متن کاملCollaboration with Tangible Augmented Reality Interfaces
We describe a design approach, Tangible Augmented Reality, for developing interfaces for supporting face-to-face collaboration. By combining Augmented Reality techniques with Tangible User Interface elements, we can create interfaces in which users can interact with spatial data as easy as real objects. Tangible AR interfaces remove the separation between the real and virtual worlds and so enha...
