Design proposal of a real-world oriented interface using the special qualities of shadow

Abstract

This research is a proposal of a real-world oriented interface using special qualities of shadows to be used in small public spaces such as regional museums. This system projects artificial shadows and regional maps. I pursued a simple expression by operating a cylindrical object. The purpose of this study is to verify that this system can be used effectively as an interactive interface by using Kinect and artificial shadows. Furthermore, I will develop a more effective interface based on the results.
