Proactive Displays • “Displays will be everywhere” – What will we do with them? – What will they do for us ? • How can displays sense & respond appropriately to the people & activities taking place nearby? – Context – Content – Interaction models

Proactive Displays: the promise & peril • The more we reveal about ourselves to – People, businesses, objects, locations, … • … the better able they are to respond appropriately … – Music, events, targeted advertising (?) – Injuries, pregnancies, other challenges • … or inappropriately – Privacy / benefit tradeoff

Proactive Displays: the promise & peril • The more we reveal about ourselves to – People, businesses, objects, locations, … • … the better able they are to respond appropriately … – Music , events, targeted advertising (?) – Injuries, pregnancies, other challenges • … or inappropriately – Privacy / benefit tradeoff MusicFX : a Proactive Auditory Display Revelation : musical preferences (while working out) Benefit : influence music selection

Pint-sized Proactive Displays • Convergence of Motes & Displays – Mote processor + radio + LCD – Ultra low power – Future: bi-stable, color, reflective displays

Models for Proactive Displays • Personal profile + contextual content is stored in backend infrastructure • Environment detects identifier (e.g., RFID, Mote) • Environment computes personal profile x content and displays 1. Various Identifiers

Models for Proactive Displays • Personal profile stored on personal device; Contextual content stored in infrastructure • Content descriptor is sent 1. Content Descriptor to the personal device • Your personal device computes personal profile x content and sends result 2. Selected for display Content Privacy management

Experience UbiComp Project • Why focus on conferences (e.g., UbiComp)? – Restricted context(s) • Paper/Poster/Demo sessions, Breaks, Lunch, Reception – Content is available • Registration info (badges), homepages – Desire to reveal details about yourself • Show & tell, learn about others & their work

Who is this guy (and why is he asking that question)?

What poster should I see next? (Trip Report: what posters did I see?)

What do we have in common?

Challenges • Identification & Tracking – RFID, Motes, Personal Server, other handhelds/wearables, … • Profiles – What does a profile look like? – Where does it come from (explicit / implicit)? – Privacy management • Contextual Content – What is displayed (in different contexts)? • Interaction Models – Proactive, interactive, hyperactive, … • Evaluation – [How] will we have enhanced the UbiComp Experience?
