Pen-and-Paper User Interfaces : Integrating Printed and Digital Documents Paperback / softback
by Jurgen Steimle
Part of the Human-Computer Interaction Series series
Paperback / softback
Description
Even at the beginning of the 21st century, we are far from becoming paperless.
Pen and paper is still the only truly ubiquitous information processing technology.
Pen-and-paper user interfaces bridge the gap between paper and the digital world.
Rather than replacing paper with electronic media, they seamlessly integrate both worlds in a hybrid user interface.
Classical paper documents become interactive. This opens up a huge field of novel computer applications at our workplaces and in our homes.
This book provides readers with a broad and extensive overview of the field, so as to provide a full and up-to-date picture of pen-and-paper computing.
It covers the underlying technologies, reviews the variety of modern interface concepts and discusses future directions of pen-and-paper computing.
Based on the author’s award-winning dissertation, the book also provides the first theoretical interaction model of pen-and-paper user interfaces and an integrated set of interaction techniques for knowledge workers.
The model proposes a ‘construction set’ of core interactions that are helpful in designing solutions that address the diversity of pen-and-paper environments.
The interaction techniques, concrete instantiations of the model, provide innovative support for working with printed and digital documents.
They integrate well-established paper-based practices with concepts derived from hypertext and social media. Researchers, practitioners who are considering deploying pen-and-paper user interfaces in real-world projects, and interested readers from other research disciplines will find the book an invaluable reference source.
Also, it provides an introduction to pen-and-paper computing for the academic curriculum. The present book was overdue: a thorough, concise, and well-organized compendium of marriages between paper-based and electronic documents. Max Mühlhäuser, Technische UniversitätDarmstadtEveryone interested in how to design for real-world activities would profit from reading this book. James D. Hollan, University of California, San Diego
