Abstract

We present a generic user interface for large interactive walls, Kupla UI. Kupla UI applies physics modeled spherical content widgets to present information. It is primarily targeted for multi-user information exploration and for informal presentations in public spaces, such as exhibitions, commercial spaces and lobbies. Kupla is designed to support multiple simultaneous users, graph-based content hierarchy, flexibly changing installation form-factors, heterogeneous content, and playful interaction.
