ABSTRACT
This paper introduces a novel mobile device and interaction technique for mobile computing. The proposed method uses a reversible display system and reverse operations for content browsing. The reversible display system is constructed with two displays. One is on the front surface and the other is on the back. Both displays show digital content. The user can view either display by simply reversing the screen. Our method uses the reverse directions, turn forward, turn backward, turn left or turn right, to change the displayed area. For example, when users read a map showing their current location on one display, the area to the north of the current location can be viewed by turning the display forward. When reading digital books, users can see the next page by turning the display to the right, and the previous page by turning it to the left. Our method is suitable for use in the mobile computing environment because people can browse contents with it while walking, looking around, and doing other activities.

Reversible display: novel interaction techniques for digital contents
CC '05: Proceedings of the 4th decennial conference on Critical computing: between sense and sensibilityWe 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 blocks: cubic displays for multi-perspective visualization
CHI EA '12: CHI '12 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsWe propose the design, implementation and evaluation of a set of tangible cubic displays. This novel approach to display technology consists of arranging six organic light emitting diode screens in a cubic form factor. We explore the possibilities that ...
Eliciting Mid-Air Gestures for Wall-Display Interaction
NordiCHI '16: Proceedings of the 9th Nordic Conference on Human-Computer InteractionFreehand mid-air gestures are a promising input method for interacting with wall displays. However, work on mid-air gestures for wall-display interaction has mainly explored what is technically possible, which might not result in gestures that users ...
