In this paper we discuss our early experiments in designing physical visualizations made of transparent acrylic glass using a laser cutter. We also present our initial considerations how these physical visualizations can be used for interactions on tabletops.

3D on Tabletops

Current tabletop systems are increasingly dealing with 3D applications. Users using these tabletops have to interact with 3D models to accomplish their tasks. These tabletop systems have to provide interaction techniques which allow effective and accurate manipulations of 3D data. Usually, tabletops only provide a 2D input space, namely the table surface, which is why 3D interactions may become...
