3D Storyboards for Interactive Visual Search
Klaus Schoeffmann, David H. Ahlstrom, László Böszörményi · 2012
Interactive image and video search tools typically use a grid-like arrangement of thumbnails for preview purpose. Such a display, which is commonly known as storyboard, provides limited flexibility at interactive search and it does not optimally exploit the available screen estate. In this paper we design and evaluate alternatives to the common two-dimensional storyboard. We take advantage of 3D graphics in order to present image thumbnails in cylindrical arrangements. Through a user study we evaluate the performance of these interfaces in terms of visual search time and subjective performance.
