We consider the problem of privacy in a 3D multi-user collaborative environment. We assume that information objects are represented by visual icons, and can either be public or private, and that users need effective methods for viewing and manipulating that state. We suggest two methods, which we call vampire mirrors and privacy lamps, that are unobtrusive, simple, and natural.
The concepts of a userinterface management system (ULMS) and userinterface designer have become well known in the userinterface and graphics community. Most UIMSs developed so far have concentrated on the efficienc...

While it may initially seem counterintuitive to view degradation within an operating system as advantageous, one could argue that, when intentionally designed, the controlled breakdown of materials-whether physical, chemical, or biological-can be leveraged for specific functions. To apply this principle to the development of functional morphing devices, we have introduced the concept of "Degrade to Function" (DtF) [16]. This concept is aimed at creating eco-friendly and self-contained morphing devices that operate through a series of environmentally-triggered degradations. In this demonstration, we elucidate the DtF design strategy and present five application examples across a range of ecosystems.

This paper describes a new userinterface, called a fingerprint userinterface (FUI), which employs fingerprint recognition. While the unique feature patterns of fingerprints have mainly been used for personal identification, the FUI is unique in that it uses not only the differences among fingerprint patterns of different persons, but also the differences among the ten fingers of a single person. In the FUI, the system identifies the finger that has operated (touched) an input device through pattern matching of fingerprints and it performs the task assigned to the identified finger. Since users are able to specify different tasks by using different fingers, they feel as if commands and data objects were actually held on their fingers.
There is a growing interest in software applications that allow several users to simultaneously interact with computer applications either in the same room or at a distance. Much early work focused on sharing existing...

Top-Levi is a public multi-user interactive system that requires a pair of users to cooperate with an audience around them. Based on acoustic levitation technology, Top-Levi leverages a unique attribute of dynamic physical 3D contents displayed and animated in the air: such systems inherently provide diferent visual information to users depending on where they are around the device. In Top-Levi, there are two primary users on opposite (left/right) sides of the device, and audience members to the front. Each sees diferent instructions displayed on a foating cube. Their collective task is to cooperate to move the cube from a start point to a fnal destination by synchronizing their responses to the instructions.

The names, icons, and tooltips of commands in feature-rich software are an important source of guidance when locating and selecting amongst commands. Unfortunately, these cues can mislead users into believing that a command is appropriate for a given task, when another command would be more appropriate, resulting in wasted time and frustration. In this paper, we present command disambiguation techniques that inform the user of alternative commands before, during, and after an incorrect command has been executed. To inform the design of these techniques, we define categories of false-feedforward errors caused by misleading interface cues, and identify causes for each. Our techniques are the first designed explicitly to solve this problem in feature-rich software. A user study showed enthusiasm for the techniques, and revealed their potential to play a key role in learning of feature-rich software.

We present an initial step towards building a system for programmers to edit code using free-form sketch annotations drawn directly onto editor and output windows. Using a working prototype system as a technical probe, an exploratory study (N = 6) examines how programmers sketch to annotate Python code to communicate edits for an AI model to perform. The results reveal personalized workflow strategies and how similar annotations vary in abstractness and intention across different scenarios and users.

This paper introduces MouthIO, the first customizable intraoral userinterface that can be equipped with various sensors and output components. MouthIO consists of an SLA-printed brace that houses a flexible PCB within a bite-proof enclosure positioned between the molar teeth and inner cheeks. Our MouthIO design and fabrication technique enables makers to customize the oral userinterfaces in both form and function at low cost. All parts in contact with the oral cavity are made of bio-compatible materials to ensure safety, while the design takes into account both comfort and portability. We demonstrate MouthIO through three application examples ranging from beverage consumption monitoring, health monitoring, to assistive technology. Results from our full-day user study indicate high wearability and social acceptance levels, while our technical evaluation demonstrates the device's ability to withstand adult bite forces.
