ABSTRACT
This paper presents INDiE (Interaction in Distributed Environments): A network protocol, device abstraction approach and software development kit for transmitting input and output data between mobile interaction devices and ambient applications in distributed interactive systems. Interaction devices may be classical input hardware, controllers, sensor equipped smart-phones or even single sensor units. The network protocol defines different messages for device registration, data delivery and error handling. The device abstraction approach enables rapid prototyping of multimodal interaction techniques using arbitrary input devices. Further on we present some highly interactive desktop and virtual reality applications that were built using the software development kit.
