ABSTRACT
We have developed several prototype user interfaces for botanical species identification and data collection across a diversity of platforms including Tablet PC, Ultra Mobile PC (UMPC), Apple iPhone, Augmented Reality, and Microsoft Surface. In our demonstration, we show UMPC and iPhone user interfaces, discuss the commonalities and distinctions across the different interfaces, and invite visitors to explore these differences. Our prototypes address several issues of interest to the CHI community including mobile interfaces, interfaces to object recognition, and visualization.
