Matthias Baldauf, Peter H. Fröhlich, Siegfried Hutter · 2010

Due to the vast amount of available georeferenced information novel techniques to more intuitively and efficiently interact with such content are increasingly required. In this paper, we introduce KIBITZER, a lightweight wearable system that enables the browsing of urban surroundings for annotated digital information. KIBITZER exploits its user's eye-gaze as natural indicator of attention to identify objects-of-interest and offers speech- and non-speech auditory feedback. Thus, it provides the user with a 6th sense for digital georeferenced information. We present a description of our system's architecture and the interaction technique and outline experiences from first functional trials.
