Visualization beyond the Desktop--the Next Big Thing

TLDR
The next big thing is multisensory visualization that goes beyond the desktop, and visualization researchers need to develop and adapt to today's new devices and tomorrow's technology.
Abstract
Visualization is coming of age. With visual depictions being seamlessly integrated into documents, and data visualization techniques being used to understand increasingly large and complex datasets, the term "visualization"' is becoming used in everyday conversations. But we are on a cusp; visualization researchers need to develop and adapt to today's new devices and tomorrow's technology. Today, people interact with visual depictions through a mouse. Tomorrow, they'll be touching, swiping, grasping, feeling, hearing, smelling, and even tasting data. The next big thing is multisensory visualization that goes beyond the desktop.

Visualizing information on mobile devices

Luca Chittaro
- 01 Mar 2006 - 
TL;DR: Although ongoing improvements would not eliminate most device limitations or alter the mobility context, they make it easier to create and experiment with alternative approaches, and building more sophisticated mobile visualizations become easier due to new, possibly standard, software APIs and increasingly powerful devices.

Perceptual user interfaces: multimodal interfaces that process what comes naturally

TL;DR: State-of-the-art multimodal speech and gesture systems now process complex gestural input other than pointing, and new systems have been extended to process different mode combinations—the most noteworthy being speech and pen input, and speech and lip movements.
