MultiVis – Novel Interaction Models for Multi-surface Visualization
-
Partners: Univ. Paris-Sud, Inria, CNRS, Institut Mines-Telecom
-
Abstract: The goal of this project is to design, evaluate, and implement novel interaction models that help users appropriate multiple computational surfaces in the sense-making process. Our initial approach is to operationalize and extend the instrumental interaction model to specifically accommodate the specific needs of the sense-making process for information visualization. This project funds Marc-Emmanuel Perrin, a joint PhD student between the VIA group at Institut Mines-Telecom and ExSitu.
MoveIT – Modeling the Speed/Accuracy Trade-Off of Human Aimed Movement with the Tools of Information Theory
-
Partners: Univ. Paris-Sud, Inria, CNRS, Institut Mines-Telecom
-
Abstract: The goal of this project is to conduct fundamental studies of aimed movements based on information theory. The project studies the interaction phenomena involved in pointing, in order to discover novel, more effective pointing techniques. This project funds Wanyu Liu, a joint Ph.D. student between the COMELEC and VIA groups at Institut Mines Telecom and ExSitu.
SensoMotorCVE – Sensor-motor Interface for Collaborative Virtual Environments with Heterogeneous Devices: Application to Industrial Design
-
Abstract: In the context of collaborative virtual environments, the goal of this project is to develop a sensorimotor interface model for CAD data manipulation that supports heterogeneous interactive systems such as wall-sized displays or immersive virtual reality rooms. This project funds Yujiro Okuya, a joint Ph.D. student between the VENISE group at LIMSI and ExSitu.
La Grande Vitrine des Choses
-
Abstract: Art-science project funded by "La Diagonale Paris-Saclay" to create, in collaboration with the theather group "n+1", an interactive store front in the form of an advent calendar, where users must discover which gestures to perform in order make an animated character open the next window. This installation raises the question of who is controlling whom: Participants think that their gestures directly control the character, but the system actually uses shaping techniques from experimental psychology that encourage users to make successive approximations to the correct gesture. The installation was demonstrated at the Fête de la Science in October, 2016, and was shown during the month of December, 2016 in the Evry shopping mall, next to the Agora Theater. It will also be shown in the Curiositas festival in Gif-sur-Yvette in May, 2017.
