“…Early designs, including the above-mentioned DTLens, as well as i-Loupe [33] and the more recent ClothLens [18], are predominantly influenced by the desktop metaphor. They typically feature interface widgets or frames around the viewport that are used to control various parameters, such as position, magnification, orientation and removal.…”

“…A corollary to this is that DragMags not only enable users to work in the same part of the workspace; they also enable users to easily share information [33]. A user will typically create a DragMag, configure it so that it shows the relevant part of the workspace, and put the detailed view close to the other user, keeping the ability to update the content of that detailed view by interacting with the view finder.…”

“…The number of degrees of freedom to control is large, as multiple users need to be able to interact concurrently with different viewports and controllers, from different positions and orientations around the table. As noted by Voida et al [33], subtle differences in interface design decisions can have a strong impact on the usability of tabletop interfaces. And while the designs described in the literature all manage to expose some set of basic controls, each falls short of providing users with all the necessary interactions to enable multiple users to effectively navigate large information spaces.…”

Multi-scale navigation interfaces were originally designed to enable single users to explore large visual information spaces on desktop workstations. These interfaces can also be quite useful on tabletops. However, their adaptation to co-located multi-user contexts is not straightforward. The literature describes different interfaces, that only offer a limited subset of navigation actions. In this paper, we first identify a comprehensive set of actions to effectively support multi-scale navigation. We report on a guessability study in which we elicited userdefined gestures for triggering these actions, showing that there is no natural design solution, but that users heavily rely on the now-ubiquitous slide, pinch and turn gestures. We then propose two interface designs based on this set of three basic gestures: one involves two-hand variations on these gestures, the other combines them with widgets. A comparative study suggests that users can easily learn both, and that the gesturebased, visually-minimalist design is a viable option, that saves display space for other controls.

“…horizontal or vertical) around which group interactions take place [30,9,11,29,21,19,1], or use multiple displays where a large shared display is used in combination with a number of smaller private displays (e.g. mobile devices or laptops), each belonging to one of the group members [31,6,20,25]. Settings in which interactions are divided across a number of displays are generally referred to as multi-surface or multi-display environments [24].…”

In general, many factors contribute to the spread of diseases among populations over large geographical areas. In practice, analysis of these factors typically requires expertise of multidisciplinary teams. In this paper, we present a visualization system which aims to support the visual analytics process involving multidisciplinary teams of analysts in colocated collaborative settings. The current prototype system allows coupled and decoupled modes of interaction, using a combination of personal visualizations on private small displays and group visualizations on a shared large display. We have conducted preliminary fieldwork and a review study of this prototype with a group of medical experts who have provided feedback on the current system and suggestions for other usage scenarios, as well as further improvements. We found that our target user group have a generally positive attitude towards the use of a shared display with support for the suggested interaction modes, even though these modes are substantially different from the way their groups currently conduct synchronous collaboration, and that additional support for sharing image and textual data over the geospatial data layer may be required.

“…Other methods, e.g. [4,7,10,11] let user directly interact with objects on local or remote space directly through a virtual window. This metaphor can be extended to allow object transfer and remote collaboration.…”

We introduce Dynamic Portals, a lightweight interaction technique to transfer virtual objects across tabletops. They maintain the spatial coherence of objects and inherently align them to the recipients' workspace. Furthermore, they allow the exchange of digital documents among multiple users. A remote view enables users to align their objects at the target location. This paper explores the interaction technique and shows how our concept can also be applied as zoomable viewport and shared workspace.
