Abstract: The Visual Interaction Platform (VIP) is a Natural User Interface (NUI) that builds on human skills of real world object manipulation and allows unhindered human-human communication in a collaborative situation. The existing VIP is being extended towards the VIP-3 in order to allow support for new kinds of interactions. An example of a natural augmented reality interface to be realized on the VIP-3 is a pen-and-paper interface that combines properties of real pen-and-paper with typical computer functionality for flexible re-use of information. Two ongoing research projects on the VIP-3 are also briefly discussed: the first project develops supporting tools for early architectural design, while the second project aims at supporting 3D interaction for navigating and browsing through multidimensional data sets.
