“…It is possible that the patterns of sharing seen in previous single access point systems [e.g., [3], [27] are not due to the limitations in input, but to differences in the social situations. This result is supported by some comments from the questionnaires, which highlighted that it might be impolite to interact while someone else were having the floor, or by the frequent occurrence of explicit handovers and coordination of the group to carry out actions on the display (rather than just carrying them out individually).…”

People often use mobile devices to access information during conversations in casual settings, but mobile devices are not well suited for interaction in groups. Large situated displays promise to better support access to and sharing of information in casual conversations. This paper presents the LunchTable, a multi-user system based on semi-public displays that supports such casual group interactions around a lunch table. We describe our design goals and the resulting system, as well as a weeklong study of the interaction with the system in the lunch space of a research lab. Our results show substantial use of the LunchTable for sharing visual information such as online maps and videos that are otherwise difficult to share in conversations. Also, equal simultaneous access from several users does not seem critical in casual group interactions.

“…Research on situated public displays has received considerable attention recently, with many projects addressing the issues of how to enable information access and share, and enhance collaboration within organizations or communal spaces (Russell and Sue 2002). The BlueScreeen project (Payne, David et al 2006) selects and displays adverts in response to users detected in the audience.…”

Abstract:Dynamic sources, which make regularly updated data available for use by other applications, are increasingly a key enabling feature of the web. They are extensively used in all sorts of social media applications where they are re-combined in multiple ways to generate new aggregate services. Public situated displays are an emergent area where dynamic sources can also play a key role in providing situated and frequently updated content. However, the specificities of public displays raise the need for automated selection of the most relevant sources to present. This study addresses relevance from the perspective of timeliness. We propose a timeliness model that supports the most common types of dynamic source. To validate that model, we set an experiment with a public display exhibiting content from dynamic sources and receiving from users feedback on its timeliness. The results from this experiment suggest a reasonable match between our model and the users' perspectives on timeliness. The results also show that the model is able to make comparative calculations of timeliness for different types of dynamic source. These results enable us to conclude that timeliness functions may help to significantly increase the relevance of content automatically selected from dynamic sources.

“…The use of these displays is usually distributed in time, and input is restricted to a single modality that is often physically bound to the display (e.g., touchscreens [14]). In contrast, the other trend is for mobile devices, such as cell phones, laptops, and wireless PDAs, to act as both input and display, where interaction is distributed in space among a number of users, allowing for synchronized collaboration and communication (e.g., virtual workspaces [13]).…”

Researchers have noted conflicting trends in collaboration technologies between delivering more information on larger displays and exploiting mobility on smaller devices. Large, shared displays provide greater choice in the presentation of information, but mobile devices offer greater flexibility in the access of information. We describe a platform that leverages the best of both worlds by allowing multiple users to access and interact with a large, shared display using their own personal mobile devices, such as a cell phone, laptop, or wireless PDA. We highlight three applications built on top of the platform that demonstrate its generality and utility in a variety of group settings: namely, web browsing, polling, and entertainment.
