“…In SAR, physical environments and/or objects are augmented without using intermediate devices (such as head mounted or handheld devices). Instead, (interactive) animations and/or images are projected, adding a virtual layer to a real environment, creating an immersive and integrated experience (Companje et al, 2006;Marner et al, 2011;Gómez-Maureira, 2014;Mast et al, 2015;van Delden et al, 2017;Mast, 2019).…”

“…Globe4D (Figure 1A) (Companje et al, 2006(Companje et al, , 2007) is a fourdimensional globe for exploring the earth's history (e.g., continental drift), consisting of a circular table, a physically rotating outer ring and a sphere in the middle that can physically rotate in all directions. An interactive animation is projected on the sphere.…”

Augmented Play Spaces (APS) are (semi-) public environments where playful interaction is facilitated by enriching the existing environment with interactive technology. APS can potentially facilitate social interaction and physical activity in (semi-)public environments. In controlled settings APS show promising effects. However, people’s willingness to engage with APS in situ, depends on many factors that do not occur in aforementioned controlled settings (where participation is obvious). To be able to achieve and demonstrate the positive effects of APS when implemented in (semi-)public environments, it is important to gain more insight in how to motivate people to engage with them and better understand when and how those decisions can be influenced by certain (design) factors. The Participant Journey Map (PJM) was developed following multiple iterations. First, based on related work, and insights gained from previously developed and implemented APS, a concept of the PJM was developed. Next, to validate and refine the PJM, interviews with 6 experts with extensive experience with developing and implementing APS were conducted. The first part of these interviews focused on influential (design) factors for engaging people into APS. In the second part, experts were asked to provide feedback on the first concept of the PJM. Based on the insights from the expert interviews, the PJM was adjusted and refined. The Participant Journey Map consists of four layers: Phases, States, Transitions and Influential Factors. There are two overarching phases: ‘Onboarding’ and ‘Participation’ and 6 states a (potential) participant goes through when engaging with an APS: ‘Transit,’ ‘Awareness,’ ‘Interest,’ ‘Intention,’ ‘Participation,’ ‘Finishing.’ Transitions indicate movements between states. Influential factors are the factors that influence these transitions. The PJM supports directions for further research and the design and implementation of APS. It contributes to previous work by providing a detailed overview of a participant journey and the factors that influence motivation to engage with APS. Notable additions are the detailed overview of influential factors, the introduction of the states ‘Awareness,’ ‘Intention’ and ‘Finishing’ and the non-linear approach. This will support taking into account these often overlooked, key moments in future APS research and design projects. Additionally, suggestions for future research into the design of APS are given.

“…Ueda has proposed a model that divides the surface of the interactive 3D globe into a mesh and conducts calculation using industrial structures as geographical parameters [4]. Companje et al have developed an installation that projects data about the Earth's surface onto an acrylic sphere [5]. A track ball in contact with the sphere facilitates rotation of the sphere; rotating a disk attached to the side of the sphere allows the user to vary time parameters, change the sunlight conditions, and to observe continental drift.…”

“…To date, most studies of user interactions with world maps have only considered 2D maps [1,2]. Most three-dimensional (3D) interactive mapping techniques display the spherical primitives directly on the user's monitor [3,4] or employ spherical displays [5,6], which implies that data visualization with virtual globe applications has not received much attention.…”

This paper describes the research and development of a new tool for visualizing world maps. The developers anticipate this tool will provide a better grasp of structures and enable an improved understanding of features from multiple viewpoints. The following needs were identified on the basis of interviews with subjects who are likely users of map software: overhead views and true-to-life views; side-by-side comparison of arbitrarily selected locations; and context awareness. The software was designed to satisfy these requirements by incorporating a new algorithm, resulting in a package with distinctly different characteristics from those that are browsed in a directly geometric fashion. In this paper, we propose a viewing system that allows the user to switch seamlessly between different geographical projections and a multi-focus view displaying method by parameter adjustment and split screen. The effectiveness of this approach is validated in a survey of subjects using this mapping software.
