SnapAndGrab: accessing and sharing contextual multi-media content using bluetooth enabled camera phones and large situated displays

Published:05 April 2008Publication History

ABSTRACT

In this paper we describe a novel interaction technique that allows users to access and share rich multi-media content via a large, situated public display and their own Bluetooth enabled camera phone. The proposed system differs from other solutions in that it does not require any client software to be installed on the user's device. We believe that our solution provides a practical and holistic approach for device-based interactions with a public multi-media information system.
