Abstract
Interactive surfaces in particular have been received much attention in recent years. Lots of researches have emphasized on this area and try to find more possibilities on the general interactive surface. In this work, we propose a new method let users interact not only on but also beyond the tabletop surface. It is intuitive for users and utilizes the space beyond the surface effectively. We additionally add a depth camera which can compute depth information and 3D positions of objects with the tabletop surface in our system. By integrating with particle filtering, we can figure out the spatial relationship between the tabletop surface and the mobile device in user‘s hands. Based on the proposed techniques, we present an interactive application: imView2 which can let users interact with the surface freely through a tablet PC. It enables beyond-surface interaction and allows more intuitive navigations and is fun to use.
