This paper reports on a qualitative analysis of gestures performed during a remote collaboration in which two people are working together with physical objects. CSCW researchers have established the importance of supporting gesture when sharing and interacting from a distance. Recent work reports on a corpus of gestures phrases [3] and a set of gestures functions and roles [2] as observed in remote collaboration on physical tasks. While advances are being made in identifying these gestures, to date the design implications of remote gesture systems is still unclear. In this paper we describe a set of gestures phrases, which we have observed. These gesture phrases are composed of a number of individual gestures. We describe a specific gesture performed by the helper indicative of participant's natural/intuitive and preferred interaction practices. We also describe gestures performed by the helper going beyond pointing or showing a movement or a shape, gestures that suggest that the helper is acting as if manipulating the remote physical objects. We discuss the implications for supporting such more elaborated gesture phrases and present a set of design recommendations for designing remote gesture systems.
