Intuitive mobile image browsing on a hexagonal lattice

Abstract

Following miniaturisation of cameras and their integration into mobile devices such as smartphones combined with the intensive use of the latter, it is likely that in the near future the majority of digital images will be captured using such devices rather than using dedicated cameras. Since many users decide to keep their photos on their mobile devices, effective methods for managing these image collections are required. Common image browsers prove to be only of limited use, especially for large image sets [1].
