MarioChart: Autonomous Tangibles as Active Proxy Interfaces for Embodied Casual Data Exploration

We introduce the notion of an Active Proxy interface, i.e. tangible models as proxies for physical data referents, supporting interactive exploration of data through active manipulation. We realise an active proxy data visualisation system, ``MarioChart", using robot carts relocating themselves on a tabletop, e.g., t…

UIST '251st AuthorVisual Impairment Technologies (Screen Readers, Tactile Graphics, Braille)

MagnePins: A Modular, Affordable, and DIY Refreshable Braille and Tactile Display

Refreshable tactile, braille and shape changing displays have been studied in HCI for many years and have recently become commercially available. These devices offer blind and low vision users the ability to read text directly from a computer application and also the exciting possibility for increased access to dynam…

Sensing Movement: Contemporary Dance Workshops with People who are Blind or have Low Vision and Dance Teachers

Dance teachers rely primarily on verbal instructions and visual demonstrations to convey key dance concepts and movement. These techniques, however, have limitations in supporting students who are blind or have low vision (BLV). This work explores the role technology can play in supporting instruction for BLV students…

DataDancing: An Exploration of the Design Space For Visualisation View Management for 3D Surfaces and Spaces

Recent studies have explored how users of immersive visualisation systems arrange data representations in the space around them. Generally, these have focused on placement centred at eye-level in absolute room coordinates. However, work in HCI exploring full-body interaction has identified zones relative to the user'…

Tangible Globes for Data Visualisation in Augmented Reality

Head-mounted augmented reality (AR) displays allow for the seamless integration of virtual visualisation with contextual tangible references, such as physical (tangible) globes. We explore the design of immersive geospatial data visualisation with AR and tangible globes. We investigate the ``tangible-virtual interplay…
