Project B5
Adaptive Ubiquitous User Interfaces

Topic

The project designs, implements and evaluates novel concepts, systems and interaction techniques for pervasive projected user interfaces. An interactive projector-camera system will be initially developed to enable the investigation of interactive multi-projector environments and their installation and usage in realistic usage contexts. At this open research questions regarding touch-based interactions, supported interaction spaces, multi-display interactions and adaptive applications will be investigated. Those interaction concepts and the corresponding display infrastructure extend the companion-technology within SFB/Transregio 62 by a novel modality which provides novel possibilities for user-specific information provision and interaction between the users and the technical system. Furthermore offers this approach additional information from optical sensors which could also potentially be used for emotion recognition. Finally allow the pervasive user interfaces also a more pervasive availability of a companion system.
