Abstract

Truly seamless tiled displays and stereoscopic large high-resolution displays are among the top research challenges in the area of large displays. In this paper we approach both topics by adding an additional projector to a tiled display scenario as well as to a stereoscopic environment. In both cases, we have developed new focus+context screen approaches: a multiple foci plus context metaphor in the tiled display setup and a 2D+3D focus+context metaphor in the stereoscopic scenario.
