Abstract

In this paper we present a research experience of tangible exploration of multimedia contents: the troll, as we dubbed it, consists in the coupling of a paper brochure and a LCD display. Browsing the brochure the user can access multimedia contents that are displayed on the screen; the animations and movies are related to each specific page of the brochure, that in turn reports a description of our projects. We show the rationale behind the exploitation of TUIs in the specific design space of the demo corner of our research lab, discuss the implementation and evaluation with users of a working prototype, and suggest a broader viewpoint in the context of natural interaction as well as further work.
