CLIM: An Interactive Tabletop for Landscape Modeling
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we describe our development of an interactive touch tabletop user interface for a landscape design tool. The user interface provides a view of the data, which combines the affordances of a multi-touch tabletop display with a vertical screen for real-time feedback. While the table metaphor fits well with the concepts of a top down view of land-scape, approachable from any direction, the board metaphor provides a clear, shared orientation for reading output charts. We also present a data model for landscape projects, which provides a knowledge-based approach to design decision making. We discuss the sourcing of the datasets that drive our landscape model.

Beyond Actuated Tangibles: Introducing Robots to Interactive Tabletops
Tangible user interfaces (TUIs) have been shown to support interaction on tabletops and interactive surfaces. We propose integrating robots as interactive partners in tabletop interfaces. We suggest a continuum of physical interfaces on interactive tabletops, starting from static tabletop TUIs, progressing to actuated TUIs and ending with small social tabletop robots that provide an engaging, p...
متن کاملHybrid Widgets on an Interactive Tabletop
We introduce the concept of hybrid widgets, which consist of a digital object on an interactive display surface, and a physical handle attached to it. We describe two implementations of this concept, both for the interaction with digital photo collections on an interactive tabletop, and discuss how the combination of a physical and a digital part in the hybrid widget supports interaction and so...
متن کاملInsights on Interactive Tabletops: A Survey of Researchers and Developers
Recently, interest in tabletop computing has surged, both within the research community and within the commercial sector. However, given the early stage of interactive tabletop adoption and current low availability, it is difficult to find end users with extended experience in using such devices. We conducted a survey of 58 tabletop researchers and developers, the only available population with...
متن کاملCLIM: A Cross-level Workload-aware Timing Error Prediction Model for Functional Units
Timing errors that are caused by the timing violations of sensitized circuit paths, have emerged as an important threat to the reliability of synchronous digital circuits. To protect circuits from these timing errors, designers typically use a conservative timing margin, which leads to operational inefficiency. Existing adaptive approaches reduce such conservative margins by predicting the timi...
متن کاملBubbleType: Enabling Text Entry within a Walk-Up Tabletop Installation
We address the issue of enabling text entry for walk-up-and-use interactive tabletop displays located in public spaces. Public tabletop installations are characterized by a diverse target user group, multiperson interaction, and the need for high approachability and intuitiveness. We first define the design constraints of text-entry methods for public tabletop installations such as clear afford...
