Augmenting a retail environment using steerable interactive displays

This paper describes a prototype retail environment in which information interactions occur in situ, within the actual space of the merchandise. By combining a steerable projected display and recognition of user gestures and actions and user position tracking through peripheral cameras, we have developed several innovative interaction techniques designed to augment the reality of a retail store. Keywords Augmented reality, projected interfaces, vision-based recognition, user tracking, tangible interfaces.
