12 Abstract New field of user interfaces called multicomputer direct manipulation Pick and Drop system The pen can Pick Up As a physical object KEYWORDS: direct manipulation, graphical user interfaces, input devices, stylus interfaces, pen interfaces, dragand- drop, multi-computer user interfaces, ubiquitous computing, computer augmented environments

13 Introduction Using multiple computers without considering the user-interface = problems Restriction of input devices Today s user interface techniques are not designed for multiple-computer environments

14 Introduction

18 Pick and drop system

19 Pick and drop system

20 Pick and drop system Applications Transfert a file between 2 computers, PDA Pick up information from kiosk terminal Draw on the wall with a tablet Take pictures from a book

21 Pick and drop system

22 Conclusion The difference between copy and pick and drop is about the user interface Faster More logical Pick and Drop and Drop Movie :

24 Abstract Tangible interface Giving physical form to windows, icons, handles, menus, and controls Present design and implementation A prototype application Tangible Geospace Keywords: tangible user interfaces, input devices, haptic input, augmented reality, ubiquitous computing

25 Introduction This paper present Tangible User Interfaces (TUIs) User interfaces employing Physical objects Instruments Surfaces Spaces as physical interfaces to digital information

26 Introduction

27 Introduction What is a metadesk? A graphically intensive system driven by interaction with graspable physical objects. In this case : Geographical space Tangible Geospace

28 Introduction metadesk Components The Desk A nearly horizontal back projetcted graphical surface The active lens A flat panel display An optically transparent surface An assortment of physical object used on the desk surface
