CubeQuery
Ricardo Langner, Anton Augsburg, Raimund Dachselt · 2014
We demonstrate CubeQuery, a tangible user interface providing a physical way to both create and manipulate basic database queries. This interactive installation is designed for individual faceted browsing and allows users to explore contents of a database, i.e., a music library. While each tangible represents an individual search parameter of a search request, the physical arrangement of multiple tangibles permits the combination of search parameters by utilizing basic logical operators. Goal of this research is to explore the practicality of spatial arrangement of tangibles to ease the process of faceted browsing.
