Video Conferencing on Non-Planar Interactive Displays
Presented at the workshop 'The Future of Personal Video Communications: Moving Beyond Talking Heads to Shared Experiences'. In conjunction with the ACM Conference on Computer-Human Interaction 2013 (CHI). Paris, France, April 27 - May 2, 2013.

Several recent publications introduce user interface prototypes with non-planar interactive surfaces. Using our own prototype Curve featuring a large vertically curved interactive surface, we want to explore video conferencing and remote collaboration scenarios on non-planar interactive surfaces. We discuss the factors framing, mobility, conception of space and interface compatibility, which might be relevant for designing video conferencing applications on non-planar surfaces and outline our research objectives. We are especially interested in how the form of non-planar displays can be used to create spatial representations and interactions that facilitate new experiences in remote collaboration scenarios.
