ABSTRACT
The AquaTop Display is system that uses the projection of images onto cloudy water. This system allows the users limbs to freely move through, under and over the projection surface. As the projection medium is fluid, we propose new interaction methods specific to this medium by using a Kinect Depth Sensor. Scooping up water, protruding fingers out from underneath the water surface are capable with this system. These type of interactions are not normally possible with current impenetrable rigid surfaces. Using mapped projection, AquaTop Display also augments one's limbs on the water surface, providing a environment for an 'immersible' experience, allowing the users to become one with the screen.

AquaTop display
VRIC '13: Proceedings of the Virtual Reality International Conference: Laval VirtualAquaTop display is a projection system that uses white water as a screen surface. This system allows the user ' s limbs to freely move through, under and over the projection surface. Using the unique characteristics of fluid, we propose new interactions ...
AquaTop display: interactive water surface for viewing and manipulating information in a bathroom
ITS '13: Proceedings of the 2013 ACM international conference on Interactive tabletops and surfacesDue to the wide spread use of smart phones and PCs, people can access information everywhere in everyday life. However, there are very few methods to access content within an bathing environment. Some people carry smart phones into a bathroom but it is ...
Origami tessellation display: interaction techniques using origami-based deformable surfaces
CHI EA '14: CHI '14 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsOrigami Tessellation Display is an origami-based input/output device that has a flexible and unique deformable surface. This study primarily investigates possible interactions for an Origami-based deformable surface, using a user observation study. The ...
