Natural interfaces in the field: the case of pen and paper

Published: 20 October 2008 Publication History

Abstract

Over the past 7 years, Adapx (formerly, Natural Interaction Systems) has been developing digital pen-based natural interfaces for field tasks. Examples include products for field note-taking, mapping and architecture/engineering/construction, which have been applied to such uses as: surveying, wild-fire fighting, land use planning and dispute resolution, and civil engineering. In this talk, I will describe the technology and some of these field-based use cases, discussing why natural interfaces are the preferred means for human-computer interaction for these applications.
