Shy Tech Floating Tablet Computers for Interaction with XR in Museums
Abstract
Tablet computers like the iPad are user-friendly and reliable interaction devices for displaying XR content in museums. Although they are lacking the stereo view of a VR headset, they also avoid the hygiene, optics and usability challenges of head mounted displays in public spaces. In our paper we describe methods to improve the shortcomings of these devices: Placement, presentation and distracting branding. Our solution is a combination of a physical hanging system and custom designed acrylic cases disguising the hardware. In our example of an exhibition about a baroque architect the result is a series of floating baroque picture frames which users are grabbing and rotating to view into the XR scenes.
