After having outlined the uses of new technologies such as smartphones, touch-screen tablets, and laptops, this article presents TangiSense interactive tabletop, equipped with RFID technology tagged on tangible objects, a paradigm interaction for ambient intelligence. Within its framework, aims to distribute surfaces (tables) interacting mainly objects. Leads surface distribution tables are given. The proposes describe some which supports; these called Tangigets. They defined according an...

One huge advantage of Augmented Reality (AR) is its numerous possibilities displaying information in the physical world, especially when applying Situated Analytics (SitA). AR devices and their respective interaction techniques allow for supplementary guidance to assist an operator carrying out complex procedures such as medical diagnosis surgery, instance. Their usage promotes user autonomy by presenting relevant may not necessarily possess expert knowledge every procedure also have access...

An interactive tabletop equipped with RFID technology implemented the Stroop and reverse-Stroop tasks. Participants moved a tangible object into one of four displayed virtual zones, which were identified either by color border or name written in black. The correct target zone corresponded to (Stroop) meaning (reverse Stroop) word congruent incongruent colored LED lights (e.g., “YELLOW” yellow red, respectively). took more time place zone, made errors, found task difficult when was lit an...

Self-organisation in robot swarms can produce collective behaviours, particularly through spatial self-organisation. For example, it be used to ensure that the robots a swarm move collectively. However, from designer’s point of view, understanding precisely what happens allows these behaviours emerge at macroscopic level remains difficult task. The same behaviour come multiple different controllers (ie control algorithm robot) and single controller give rise sometimes caused by slight...

We present in this article a new platform for interaction using an interactive table coupled with tangible objects. The is composed RFID antenna to track objects, store data these objects (particularity of technology), and detect the superimposed first section presents project its partners. It continues hardware description, involved presentation framework chosen. propose second simple application illustrate architecture while focusing on principle operation implementation. ends conclusion...

Résumé Depuis le début des années 1990, les tables interactives soulèvent un intérêt croissant tant dans recherches académiques qu’industrielles. L’engouement pour ces nouvelles plate-formes d’interaction ne cessant d’augmenter chaque année, nous proposons cet article état de l’art associé à ensemble réflexions. Il s’avère que applications sur évoluent : celles-ci passent progressivement l’exploitation d’objets virtuels celle tangibles. Les usages étant différents courantes (ordinateur,...

In this study, we evaluate in which extent a tangible tabletop interface can enhance students’ activity involve playing serious game. Participants were eleven first grade students. Each group practiced the game class and then, same for interface. Time on task of each student was measured two conditions practicing Results indicate that time students spend is significantly higher than they when class. However, results revealed interindividual differences. Finally, data shown mostly...

We describe in this article the results of three-years study using a Tangible Tabletop Interface (TTI) for development student learning spatial reasoning abilities. In partnership with French Department Education and teachers, we have designed built serious game mathematics, called The Game Towers TangiSense 2 interactive tabletop. Then, conducted « wild » experiments 68 students. As part first study, compared outcomes two groups students (Gr. Traditional vs. Gr. TTI). encouraged us to make...

In the context of robot swarms, fragmentation refers to a breakdown in communication and coordination among robots. This can lead issues swarm self-organisation, especially loss efficiency or an inability perform their tasks. Human operators influencing could prevent fragmentation. To help them this task, it is necessary study ability humans perceive anticipate article studies perception different types occurring swarms depending on behaviour selected amongst swarming, flocking, expansion...
