IndianaJS: Building spatially aware web sites for the Web of Things

Abstract

While almost any device today may have a virtual representation, the web itself is not yet a very physical experience. Bringing proven spatial interaction and ubiquitous computing paradigms to life using current web technology, we designed IndianaJS, a JavaScript framework to add a physical browsing experience to any Web of Things content. The evaluation of the IoT-Radar, built on top of our library, shows that web-based hyper-reality can still achieve a unique user experience 15 years after the first implementations.
