Research Abstract |
Although we may not be aware of it, wear is a real important source of information in our everyday life. Through wear, histories of our use of items are perceptually available to us in ways that inform and support the task we are doing. In this research, we developed a technique for visualizing the history of desktop objects using physical wear effect. While in the real world, documents and file folders usually getting smudged or torn out after being repeatedly used, the document and folder icons in an existing GUI system never change their appearance with the use of the corresponding digital objects. In the real office environment, wear is always an important source of information supporting the daily tasks of office workers. For examples, to find a frequently referred document, he/she may naturally lead his/her hand to pick up a relatively worn file folder first, as the frequent use of the folder tend to make it smudged and soiled. Also, to find a recently used document, a worker will not check the stack of documents covered with heavy dust, and to search for a recently created document he/she will skip those documents whose papers are already deteriorated. Therefore by making the file and folder icons change their appearance according to their history, the user is able to perceive and use the affordance of wear on the GUI and directly import their prior knowledge of using wear in the real world for effectively interacting with files and folders. To achieve more realist images of wear, we also developed several techniques for modeling the weathering of paper.
