Abstract

We constructed a reversible display system with displays on the front and back surfaces. The display facing the observer has a different role from the display on the reverse side. The images shown on each display are synchronized, making the reversible display system particularly suitable for showing the bilateral character of various objects. For example, when one display shows the front view of digital content, the other one shows the rear view of the content. The user can change the face of the digital content simply by reversing the display. We believe that this method of physically interacting with the system is intuitive, natural, easy to understand and enjoyable for users.
