Abstract

This paper introduces a new concept of interacting with mobile devices while on the move. The concept is using a combination of interaction techniques, like AR, touch, tilting and rotating the mobile device. The validation is done using some basic scenarios in which the users interact with various services available on the street. The user interface elements are represented by AR anchored objects (still pictures) and floating objects that are giving visual cues to where services are available. The users are aided in their actions by freezing the user interface when the device is down tilted so that they could easily manipulate the objects.
