Toolglass and magic lenses: the see-through interface
TL;DR: Toolglass™ widgets are new user interface tools that can appear, as though on a transparent sheet of glass, between an application and a traditional cursor, and form a see-through interface that offers many advantages over traditional controls.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Bricks: laying the foundations for graspable user interfaces
TL;DR: This work introduces the concept of Graspable User Interfaces that allow direct control of electronic or virtual objects through physical handles for control, and presents a design space for Bricks which lay the foundation for further exploring and developing Graspables User Inter interfaces.
Journal ArticleDOI
