DisplayPointers: seamless cross-device interactions

Authors Info & Claims
Published:16 November 2015Publication History

ABSTRACT

We present a system for cross-device interactions and interaction scenarios based on touch events between devices. DisplayPointers were designed to explore the affordances of manipulating physical display-objects in multi-device environments. The interactions presented in this paper are an exploration of what a touch between two devices means; a search for a language of physical cross-device interactions. DisplayPointers are implemented by augmenting off-the-shelf devices: our system is fully mobile and can be easily implemented by other researchers and designers.
