Abstract

A device concept featuring interactive flexible surfaces with origami tessellations is presented. The Origami Tessellation Display (OTD) enables users to dynamically transform the shape of interactive surfaces from flat to three-dimensionally curved surfaces. We explore the design space of such devices by investigating different types, forms, and sizes. Furthermore, we propose a set of interaction principles and techniques based on the physical form of the OTD. A brief discussion of a user-based deformation study using low-fidelity prototypes as part of the user-centered design process is also presented.
