Using multimodal interactions for 3D television and multimedia browsing
David M. Hannah, Martin J. Halvey, Graham Wilson, Stephen Anthony Brewster · 2011
We investigate the use of a mobile device to provide multifunc-tional input and output for a stereoscopic 3D television (TV) display. Through a number of example applications, we demonstrate how a combination of gestural and haptic input (touch and pressure) can be successfully deployed to allow the user to navigate a complex information space (multimedia and TV content), while at the same time visual and haptic (thermal and vibrotactile) feedback can be used to provide additional information to the user enriching the experience. Finally, we discuss our future work exploring the potential of this idea to allow multi-device and multimodal browsing of 3D TV and multimedia.
