At Interaction 2024, held at the Hitotsubashi Memorial Hall in the National Center of Sciences Building from March 6th to March 8th, 2024, ONO Genta (3rd year undergraduate), MORIMOTO Kosuke (4th year undergraduate), YASUNAKA Yuki (1st year master's student), HASHIURA Kenta (2nd year master's student), and Associate Professor WATANABE Keita in the Department of Frontier Media Science at the School of Interdisciplinary Mathematical Sciences / the Frontier Media Science Program (WATANABE Keita Laboratory) at the Graduate School of Advanced Mathematical Sciences, specializing in Advanced Media Sciences presented “Bubble-UI: A Spatial UI System Utilizing Soap Bubbles as a Metaphor” and received the Interactive Presentation Award (public vote).
This research proposes a novel method, Bubble-UI, which uses soap bubbles as a metaphor for UI in AR/VR to facilitate the construction of mental models for behavior for user interactions, leading to more accurate operations. The presentation demonstrated the application of the soap bubble metaphor to button-based UIs and object placement UIs using beams commonly found in VR/AR systems, aiming to improve operability while maintaining clarity.
