Immersive Analytics Spaces and Surfaces

Abstract

Immersive Analytics has now fully emerged as a research topic in the Visualisation and Human-Computer Interaction research communities. While evidence of its benefits has been accumulating, we have still attained only a basic understanding of the extent to which they can support human sensemaking, This workshop aims to define a roadmap for new directions in leveraging the benefits of spatial interaction to support sensemaking. In particular the main goal of this workshop will be to focus on understanding the benefits and applications of immersive interactive spaces and surfaces (e.g. body, walls, smartphones or other interactive surfaces such as tabletops) for enhancing human sensemaking.
