Abstract:
Display and sensor
technologies have advanced to the point where it is now
possible to create large, interactive displays in public
places. Several initiatives are exploring how such
displays can be used in the foreground to support highly
focused collaborative activities. We are exploring how an
interactive display (or wall) can be used in the
background to enrich casual interactions of the people
nearby, by sensing the presence of those people, looking
up profile information about them, and displaying selected
information as they are gathered next to the display.
Two applications / installations of such displays are
described in this paper: GROUPCAST and the INTERACTIVE
WALL MAP.
