Diamonds Edge: From Notebook to Table and Back Again

by Michael Bernstein, Avi Robinson-Mosher, Ron B. Yeh, Scott R. Klemmer. Video accompaniment to Ubicomp 2006 poster http://hci.stanford.edu/publications/2006/DEdge/DEdgeUbicomp.pdf

We discuss the interaction benefits derived from combining the collaborative nature of touch-sensitive tabletop interfaces with the paper affordances and personal space of digital pen and paper. The pen may be used as fluid input to create and transform content within the public table space, and the tables top-down projection as a method to augment the physical paper with properties of digital output. Finally, we introduce Diamonds Edge, a design brainstorming tool which incorporates the interaction techniques described.
