CISE Research Instrumentation: Shared Interaction in Support of Design, Learning and Planning

CDA - 9529549 菲舍尔 阿里亚斯，埃内斯托伊登，哈尔 科罗拉多大学博尔德分校 支持设计、学习和规划的共享交互 两个InterSim（交互式模拟）站正在开发中，每个站都由一个大型交互式表面和多个3D交互器组成。 这些系统使我们能够超越单用户/单台计算机的交互模型-强调共享交互，以调解学习，设计和规划的社会方面。 这些范例集成了物理对象的使用--支持和鼓励参与者之间的面对面交互--与虚拟对象--为模拟基础的模型提供计算支持。 当通过网络连接时，这些系统可以允许与模拟和远距离的个人之间进行交互。 正在使用两个阶段的原型制作过程：首先，正在开发利用前表面投影的初始版本，使我们能够处理一些软件和设备控制器问题，并证明该方法的适用性。后续的开发将利用更新的技术来创建一个背面成像系统，以解决阴影问题。 为了测试和指导其发展，该技术的应用正在以冲突解决，决策和规划领域的平行努力的形式进行;通过设计学习：跨文化科学课堂交流;以人为本，支持沟通和协作的智能代理。

CDA - 9529549 Fischer, Gerhard Arias, Ernesto Eden, Hal University of Colorado at Boulder Shared Interaction in Support of Design, Learning, and Planning Two InterSim (Interactive Simulation) stations are being developed, each composed of a large interactive surface and multiple 3-D interactors. These systems allow us to move beyond the interaction model of single user/single computer--with an emphasis upon shared interaction to mediate social aspects of learning, design, and planning. These paradigms integrate the use of physical objects--to support and encourage face-to-face interaction among the participants--with virtual objects--to provide computational support for the model underlying the simulation. When linked across a network, these systems can allow the interaction with simulations and among individuals at a distance. A two-phase prototyping process is being used: First, an initial version utilizing front-surface projection is being developed, allowing us to deal with some of the software and device-controller issues and demonstrating the applicability of the approach. Subsequent development will utilize newer technology to create a back-imaged system to resolve shadowing problems. To test and guide its development, applications of the technology are underway in the form parallel efforts in the areas of Conflict Resolution, Decision Making and Planning; Learning by Design: Cross-Cultural Science Classroom Interchange; and Human-Centered, Intelligent Agents Supporting Communication and Collaboration.
