2.2 Reports of explorative studies conducted by the Visual Navigation Project
Invisible Interactions: Studying In-Library Usage of a Movie-Related Touch Table Application
|
 |
On the 8th of March 2017, an exclusive pre-screening of the movie “Hidden Figures” took place in the Science Library. To obtain insights into the actual use of this application, we gathered basic statistics. This post summarizes our findings, based on the first two weeks in which the touch table was installed in the library.
