Abstract:
Graphical User Interfaces (GUI) offers a very flexible interface but require the user's complete visual attention, whereby Tangible User Interfaces (TUI) can be operated with minimal visual attention.
To prevent visual overload and provide a flexible yet intuitive user interface, Smarter Objects combines the best of both styles by using a GUI for understanding and programming and a TUI for day to day operation. Smarter Objects uses Augmented Reality technology to provide a flexible GUI for objects when that is needed.
