An interactive 3D exploration narrative interface for storytelling

Published: 01 June 2004 Publication History

Abstract

Storytelling is an effective and important educational means for children. With the augmented reality (AR) technology, storytelling becomes more and more interactive and intuitive in the sense of human computer interaction. Although AR technology is not new, it's potential in education is just beginning to be explored. In this paper, we present a 3D mixed media story cube which uses a foldable cube as the tangible and interactive storytelling interface. Here, we embed both the concept of AR and the concept of tangible interaction. Multiple modalities including speech, 3D audio, 3D graphics and touch are used to provide the user (especially children) with multi-sensory experiences in the process of storytelling. Our research explores a new interface for children education.
