Mobile Reacher Interface for Intuitive Information Navigation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose Mobile Reacher Interface (MoRIn) that is a new interface with a visual tag for a mobile device. MoRIn allows users to navigate sophisticated information structures by making natural hand gestures while holding a camera-equipped mobile terminal. The structure of an item of interest is acquired via a visual tag. The user can then navigate the structure as if he/she is handling physical objects. MoRIn greatly eases the user’s cognitive loads. For instance, the user can alter the volume of an announcement by twisting terminal as if he/she were turning a dial. We describe MoRIn, some applications, and the results of a preliminary experiment.

Collaborative Augmented Reality for Outdoor Navigation and Information browsing
Augmented reality (AR) can provide an excellent user interface for visualization in a mobile computing application. The user’s view is augmented with location based information at the correct spatial location, thus providing an intuitive way of presenting such information. In this work we demonstrate the use of AR for collaborative navigation and information browsing tasks in an urban environme...
متن کاملA Cognitively Motivated Route-Interface for Mobile Robot Navigation
A more natural interaction between humans and mobile robots can be achieved by bridging the gap between the format of spatial knowledge used by robots and the format of languages used by humans. This enables both sides to communicate by using shared knowledge. Spatial knowledge can be (re)presented in various ways to increase the interaction between humans and mobile robots. One effective way i...
متن کاملIntuitive Map Navigation on Mobile Devices
In this paper, we propose intuitive motion-based interfaces for map navigation on mobile devices with built-in cameras. The interfaces are based on the visual detection of the devices self-motion. This gives people the experience of navigating maps with a virtual looking glass. We conducted a user study to evaluate the accuracy, sensitivity and responsiveness of our proposed system. Results sho...
