Title
Improving disaster response with multi-touch technologies
Abstract
A renewed interest in multi-touch tabletop display technologies has research groups investigating alternate human computer interaction techniques. The UMass Lowell Robotics Lab recently began investigating the use of the Mitsubishi DiamondTouch display, which supports multiple points of contact, multiple users, and rich gesture recognition. These capabilities naturally lend themselves to disaster response command and control. This video describes two prototype urban search and rescue command and control interfaces that have been investigated for use in tabletop configurations.
