Abstract.
Proximity Toolkit is a toolkit that simplifies the exploration of interaction techniques based on proximity and orientations of people, tools, and large digital surfaces. ViconFace is a playful demonstration application built atop of this toolkit. A cartoon face on a large display tracks a person moving around it, where it visually and verbally responds to that person’s proximity, orientation and wand use. The accompanying video illustrates all this in action.
Keywords: Toolkits, proximity, situated interaction.
