We propose a novel interactive method for museum exhibitions based on handheld devices such as ordinary camera-equipped mobile phones. It enables museum visitors to automatically get annotations about exhibits interest in a non-distractive way by capturing videos of them. Our method recognizes different comment region of exhibits by applying SIFT algorithm on handheld devices. While SIFT is known...
Museums need to attract more visitors. Personalization of exhibitions is one way to achieve this end. Various options for personalization using information systems have been proposed. A major question is how directive personalization should be. Is visitor satisfaction highest if the system limits the burden of choice, or should it leave a great deal of autonomy to the visitor? This paper reports on...
In this paper, we question the assumption that seamless integration of computer system components is necessarily a design requirement for wearable computing and for ubiquitous computing. We explore Mark Weiser's notions of seamlessness and 'seamfulness', and use them in discussing the design and use of wearable and ubicomp systems. The physical nature of the systems we design reveals itself in, for...
