Overview
- This book is the first attempt to bring together current research findings in the domain of interactive horizontal displays
- This novel compilation will integrate and summarise findings from the most important international tabletop research teams
- It will provide a state-of-the-art overview of this research domain and therefore allow for the discussion of emerging future directions in research and technology of interactive horizontal displays
Part of the book series: Human–Computer Interaction Series (HCIS)

About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“Müller-Tomfelde’s book explores the research world around tabletop displays. The book is structured in three parts … which correspond to three different research disciplines: hardware/software, human-computer interaction, and computer-supported cooperative work. … The book achieves its goal. Fellow researchers will be able to get an introduction to the field of tabletop research. This is also an interesting book for software engineers, GUI designers, technical managers, and other practitioners who work with horizontal displays.” (Gerald Friedland, ACM Computing Reviews, October, 2010)Editors and Affiliations
About the editor
Christian Müller-Tomfelde is a researcher at the Network Technologies Laboratory of the CSIRO ICT Centre in Sydney. His expertise lies in the research area of Human Computer Interaction and Virtual and Hybrid Environments focussing on the support of co-located and remote collaboration support. His interests also include novel forms of interaction, multimodal interaction such as sound feedback. After finishing his studies in electrical engineering at the University of Hamburg-Harburg, he worked at the Center for Art and Media Technology (ZKM) in Karlsruhe. In 1997 he joined the GMD-IPSI's division AMBIENTE "Workspaces of the Future" in Darmstadt/Germany. He was involved in the i-LAND project and in the design of the roomware components of the first and second generations. In his dissertation he explored new forms of audio feedback for the collaborative interaction in hybrid, next generation work environments. As a post-doctoral fellow Christian was investigating aspects of Human Computer Interaction in virtual haptic environments. Now Christian is leading national research projects in distributed collaboration and for interactions on large high-resolution displays and in Multi-Display Environments within the CSIRO.
