Abstract

Public Display offers an excellent conduit for automatic delivery of information in an intelligent environment that is tailored to the user. We have detected some situations in which some kind of interaction with public displays is needed. The objective should require minimum interactive effort on the part of the user. In this work we present our experience when we tested two forms of interacting with public displays: Infrared sensors, to detect a sweep of the hand over the sensor; and a Near Field Communication (NFC) enabled cell phone, which used a mobile keyboard to carry out the interaction.
