ABSTRACT
We repeated a study on the usage of a magic lens and a static peephole interface for playing a find-and-select game in a public space. While we reproduced the study setup and procedure the task was conducted in a public transportation stop with different characteristics. The results on usage duration and user preference were significantly different from those reported for previous conditions. We investigate possible causes, specifically the differences in the spatial characteristics and the social contexts in which the study took place.

Playing it real: magic lens and static peephole interfaces for games in a public space
MobileHCI '12: Proceedings of the 14th international conference on Human-computer interaction with mobile devices and servicesMagic lens and static peephole interfaces are used in numerous consumer mobile phone applications such as Augmented Reality browsers, games or digital map applications in a variety of contexts including public spaces. Interface performance has been ...
The utility of Magic Lens interfaces on handheld devices for touristic map navigation
This paper investigates the utility of the Magic Lens metaphor on small screen handheld devices for map navigation given state of the art computer vision tracking. We investigate both performance and user experience aspects. In contrast to previous ...
Evaluation of an off-screen visualization for magic lens and dynamic peephole interfaces
MobileHCI '10: Proceedings of the 12th international conference on Human computer interaction with mobile devices and servicesMap navigation is often limited due to the inherent size restrictions of mobile devices' displays. Using a magic lens to interact with physical objects has been proposed as a way to reduce this limitation. The dynamic peephole interface is an ...
