Entangling Ambient Information with Peripheral Interaction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ambient information systems have been an active research area since the 1990s. However, most of these ambient systems let the user only passively consume information, and do not provide a way to interact with it. In this paper, we offer a view beyond just representing information. We propose to engage the user in a peripheral interaction with the ambient device. By keeping it peripheral, all advantages of ambient information systems – e.g. keeping the users aware without burdening them – are preserved. We will demonstrate this concept with two prototypes: an ambient appointment projection and a presence-indicating tangible.

Matrix rearrangement approach for the entangling power with hybrid qudit systems
We extend the former matrix rearrangement approach of the entangling power to the general cases, without requirement of same dimensions of the subsystems. The entangling power of a unitary operator is completely determined by its realignment and partial transposition. As applications, we calculate the entangling power for the Ising interaction and the isotropic Heisenberg interaction in the hyb...
متن کاملUnderstanding Dynamic Design Elements for Information Representation of Ambient Media
As newly emerging dynamic elements in the time based design area, such as interaction design, dynamic design elements are evolving under new principles. It is different from the static design elements – color, form or material – of conventional design fields like visual design or product design. Ambient Media (or ambient display, Wisneski et al 1998) represent information through subtle changes...

A changing computing landscape is expected to sense the physical world yet remain concealed within its very infrastructure to provide virtual services which are discreetly networked, omnipresent yet nonintrusive. Ambient Information Systems (AIS), permit a mode of expression that can easily exist at the level of subconscious realisation. This research focuses on the development of an Ambient Co...
متن کاملAmbient Interfaces that Motivate Changes in Human Behavior
Peripheral or ambient displays move information from the periphery to the center of human attention and back. Our research group is interested in the interaction and interface design goal of how to best design ambient displays that help users to understand and change their behavior. We have found that there is often a disconnect between a person’s perceived and actual behavior, and we hypothesi...
متن کاملMatrix realignment and partial-transpose approach to entangling power of quantum evolutions
Given a unitary operator, in the context of quantum information 1 , one may ask how much entanglement capability the operator has. The entangling unitary operator can be considered as a resource for quantum-information processing, and it becomes important to quantitatively describe unitary operators. Recently, there is increasing interest in the entanglement capabilities of quantum evolution an...
