Abstract

The research area of Single Display Groupware (SDG) looks at how to best support multiple users collaborating around a single computer [4]. One outstanding issue in SDG research concerns how to display private information on shared displays. This paper discusses a mechanism by which private information can be selectively displayed to specific users that are gathered around a shared display. A prototype system is presented that implements the mechanism through the use of adapted stereographic hardware.
