Abstract

We propose interaction design of a map navigation system that displays Google Maps on a tabletop display, and Google Earth and Google Street View on the wall display. In Google Maps on the table, we introduce the use of hand gestures to pan, rotate, and zoom for providing basic interaction. We also introduce a function that enables comparison of maps of different scales and locations. In Google Earth on the wall, the user can see the 3D world from a bird's-eye view by linking Google Maps and the proposed hang glider device, creating the sense of flying on Google Maps. Google Street View can be displayed on the wall and the user can move around it by using the finger gesture of walking on the table.
