ABSTRACT
In this paper, we present a tiled display system made out of hexagonal cardboard screens with no visible bezel. Use of a bezel-less hexagonal form factor allows users to build larger multiform displays out of smaller tiles. Individual display tiles can be picked up to allow tangible interactions with physics simulations that are rendered onto the individual tiles. The corners of each hexagon are marked with invisible infrared retro-reflective dots. Computer vision is used to track the 3D location and orientation of these tiles. Our prototype projects back images onto each individual display. This allows for a seamless interaction experience that anticipates wireless Organic LED technology. We discuss a number of applications and interaction techniques for compound cardboard displays, which include tilting, rotating, moving and touching of tiles.

An inflatable hemispherical multi-touch display
TEI '11: Proceedings of the fifth international conference on Tangible, embedded, and embodied interactionIn this paper, we introduce a multi-touch display surface that can be dynamically deformed from a flat circular display to a convex or concave hemispherical display. A rubber latex material is used for the display surface allowing it to inflate or ...
SnowGlobe: a spherical fish-tank VR display
CHI EA '11: CHI '11 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsIn this paper, we present a spherical display with Fish-Tank VR as a means for interacting with three- dimensional objects. We implemented the spherical display by reflecting a projected image off a hemispherical mirror, allowing for a seamless ...
Effects of Display Sizes on a Scrolling Task using a Cylindrical Smartwatch
MobileHCI '15: Proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction with Mobile Devices and Services AdjunctWith a growing interest in wrist-worn devices, research has typically focused on expanding the available interaction area for smartwatches. In this paper, we instead investigate how different display sizes influence task performance, while maintaining a ...
