Description
Summary:Traditionally, a user has positioned himself/herself to be in front of a display in order to access information from it. In this information age, life at work and even at home is often confined to be in front of a display device that is the source of information or entertainment. The paper introduces another paradigm where the display follows the user rather than the user being tied to the display. We demonstrate how steerable projection and people tracking can be combined to achieve a display that automatically follows the user.
