An Interface Metaphor, the Shadow for Tangible Augmented Reality - Mainly with the application case to a media art piece, Augmented Shadow -

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This research presents a new interface metaphor, the shadow for the tangible augmented reality environment. The metaphor is based on the idea of connecting the virtual to the tangible interface, resulting in new types of entertainment and natural interaction, which integrates with unique sensibilities of the shadow, elevating the user experience with spiritual, poetic inspirations and emotional, intellectual amusements. The goal of this research is to develop the interface metaphor, and to present the new possibilities of the integrated interface, methodological, and analytical contexts for building, understanding and evaluating examples of the interface. This research concludes with the presentation of a media art piece, Augmented Shadow, the exemplification of the interface metaphor by casting the artificial shadows of the tangible objects on a tabletop interface.
