Abstract
As wearable devices gain acceptance, we need to ask, What will user interfaces look like in a post-smartphone world? Will these future interfaces support sophisticated interactions in a mobile context? The authors draw from visual analytics concepts to address the growing need for individuals to manage information on personal devices. Spatial analytic interfaces (SAIs) can leverage the benefits of spatial interaction to enable everyday visual analytics tasks to be performed in-situ, at the most beneficial place and time. They explore the possibilities for such interfaces using head-worn display technology and discuss current developments and future research goals for the successful development of SAIs.

Embedded Data Representations

TL;DR: The notion of physical data referents is formalized - the real-world entities and spaces to which data corresponds - and the relationship between referentS and the visual and physical representations of their data is examined, including both visualizations and physicalizations.

Design and Evaluation of Interactive Small Multiples Data Visualisation in Immersive Spaces

TL;DR: This work uses a "shelves" metaphor for layout of small multiples and considers a design space across a number of layout and interaction dimensions and demonstrates the applicability of a prototype system informed by this design space to data sets from different domains.

Expanding the Bounds of Seated Virtual Workspaces

TL;DR: This work developed new ways of minimising the physical effort and discomfort of viewing virtual display spaces within an acceptable and comfortable range of neck movement, and compared implicit control of display position based on head orientation against explicit user control.

A head-mounted three dimensional display

TL;DR: The fundamental idea behind the three-dimensional display is to present the user with a perspective image which changes as he moves, and this display depends heavily on this "kinetic depth effect".

Toward a Deeper Understanding of the Role of Interaction in Information Visualization

TL;DR: Seven general categories of interaction techniques widely used in Infovis are proposed, organized around a user's intent while interacting with a system rather than the low-level interaction techniques provided by a system.

Guidelines for using multiple views in information visualization

TL;DR: Based on a workshop discussion of multiple views, and based on the authors' own design and implementation experience with these systems, eight guidelines for the design of multiple view systems are presented.

UbiGreen: investigating a mobile tool for tracking and supporting green transportation habits

TL;DR: This paper explores the use of personal ambient displays on mobile phones to give users feedback about sensed and self-reported transportation behaviors, and presents a working system for semi-automatically tracking transit activity and a visual design capable of engaging users in the goal of increasing green transportation.

A survey of design issues in spatial input

TL;DR: A survey of design issues for developing effective free-space three-dimensional (3D) user interfaces, including the use of spatial references, relative gesture, two-handed interaction, multisensory feedback, physical constraints, and head tracking is presented.
