  • Pico-Ing Into the Future of Mobile Projection and Contexts
    Pico-ing into the Future of Mobile Projection and Contexts Max L. Wilson*, Dan Craggs, Simon Robinson, Matt Jones, Kristian Brimble Future Interaction Technology Lab, Department of Computer Science, Swansea University, Swansea, SA28PP, UK Tel: +44 (0) 1792 295393 Fax: +44 (0) 1792 295708 {m.l.wilson, csdanc, s.n.w.robinson, matt.jones}@swansea.ac.uk Abstract Ten years ago we were on the verge of having cameras built into our mobile phones, but knew very little about what to expect or how they would be used. Now we are faced with the same unknowns with mobile projector phones. This research seeks to explore how people will want to use such technology, how they will feel when using it, and what social effects we can expect to see. This paper describes our two-phase field investigation that uses a combination of methods to investigate how, when, and why mobile projections may be used. The first study used an experience sampling method to investigate responses to a range of different media types, and, for example, the choice of surfaces used in each case. The second study asked users to create video diary entries showing when, where, and why they would have wanted to project information. Together these studies provide complementary insights into the future use of mobile projector phones. Our results cover detailed responses to a range of media types from the first study, while the second identified which of the known mobile information needs were commonly recorded by participants. Both studies provide insights that may help shape the hardware, software, and interaction design of mobile projector phones as they become increasingly available.

    CROSS-DISPLAY ATTENTION SWITCHING IN MOBILE INTERACTION WITH LARGE DISPLAYS Umar Rashid A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of PhD at the University of St. Andrews 2012 Full metadata for this item is available in Research@StAndrews:FullText at: http://research-repository.st-andrews.ac.uk/ Please use this identifier to cite or link to this item: http://hdl.handle.net/10023/3193 This item is protected by original copyright This item is licensed under a Creative Commons License Cross-Display Attention Switching in Mobile Interaction with Large Displays PhD Thesis by Umar Rashid School of Computer Science University of St Andrews March 2012 Abstract Mobile devices equipped with features (e.g., camera, network connectivity and media player) are increasingly being used for different tasks such as web browsing, document reading and photography. While the portability of mobile devices makes them desirable for pervasive access to information, their small screen real-estate often imposes restrictions on the amount of information that can be displayed and manipulated on them. On the other hand, large displays have become commonplace in many outdoor as well as indoor environ- ments. While they provide an efficient way of presenting and disseminating information, they provide little support for digital interactivity or physical accessibility. Researchers argue that mobile phones provide an efficient and portable way of interacting with large displays, and the latter can overcome the limitations of the small screens of mobile devices by providing a larger presentation and interaction space. However, distributing user inter- face (UI) elements across a mobile device and a large display can cause switching of visual attention and that may affect task performance.

One main concern is how this to browse an image library. The three potential interactions were resource will be used and exploited. The act of physically holding phone screen only, projector only and a combination of phone and the projection device while interacting is uncommon and projector. Tests showed that the users predominantly preferred the potentially beset with many issues. In this paper we present a projection only method and half of the participants agreed that the mobile application, which uses the searchlight metaphor as a projection only technique was the fastest. The problem of context novel means of navigating though information space, potentially switches is common in both the projection only and the mixed of limitless size. In addition to the searchlight navigation screen technique as the user still had to use the phone keypad to technique we have developed a number of input techniques which navigate. challenge the classic button press interaction with a number of Cao et al.
