Augmenting the Workspace of Epigraphists. An interaction design study

Category:

Description

This paper presents the results of an interaction design study that focuses on the use of natural user interfaces for professionals in the fields of epigraphy and archaeology. This study proposes solutions for utilizing the sensors that can be found in popular handheld devices, such as tablets and smart phones, in order to naturally perform common tasks from the typical work-flow of epigraphists. The developed interface allows the users to naturally hold digitized inscriptions, interact with them in order to relight or manipulate them as if they were real physical objects, and interact with metadata or other multi-modal data, such as text and images.
