Abstract
Social Proximity Applications (SPAs) has been an emerging hot topic in recent mobile research communities. However, the traditional SPA interfaces rely on heavy interaction load in visual attention. This is always problematic when people are on the move. This paper describes our research-in-progress in designing and developing a suitable SPA interface for the use in a night market. Night markets embody a distinct cultural habitat for social life in Taiwan. Visitors are continuously bombarded with surrounding information. The results showed our non-visual interaction approach could be a successful means in user interfaces in this type of situations.

Non-visual information display using tactons
CHI EA '04: CHI '04 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsThis paper describes a novel form of display using tactile output. Tactons, or tactile icons, are structured tactile messages that can be used to communicate message to users non visually. A range of different parameters can be used to construct Tactons,...
Gesture interaction for wall-sized touchscreen display
UbiComp '13 Adjunct: Proceedings of the 2013 ACM conference on Pervasive and ubiquitous computing adjunct publicationIn order to improve the user experience in a large touchscreen, this research introduces gesture interaction into wall-sized touchscreen. According to the distance between user and display, we create two interaction modes for touch and body gesture ...
