The Living-Room: Browsing, Organizing and
Presenting Digital Image Collections in
Interactive Environments
We present the Living-Room, an interactive application for
browsing, organizing and sharing digital photos. The application
runs in an instrumented environment on a wall display
and an interactive tabletop, which is meant to simulate
a future living room. We discuss the design rationale as
well as the interaction techniques and the technical implementation.
To asses how well our design goals were met,
we evaluated the application in a study with 10 participants
with mostly good results.
Keywords: Photoware, bi-manual interaction, hybrids,
