Tangible Teleconferencing

This paper describes a teleconferencing application that uses real objects to interact with virtual on-screen content. A variety of tangible interaction techniques can be used to load, translate, rotate and scale shared virtual models. In addition, snapshots of real documents can be easily introduced into the system and enlarged using a tangible lens. We describe the teleconferencing interface and present results from a pilot user study.
