Our design centers on representing the deck of slides as a stack embedded in a 3-D world. With only single button clicks, the viewer can quickly and easily navigate the deck of slides. We provide four types of annotation techniques and have designed a synchronization mechanism that makes it easy for the viewer to move in and out of sync with the presenter. We also supply alarms as a method for viewer notification. We evaluate our approach with a preliminary user study resulting in positive feedback about our design plus suggestions for improvements and extensions.}, publisher = {AIGA: American Institute of Graphic Arts}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/v4v-a-view-for-the-viewer/}, pages = {19}, isbn = {1-59593-250-X}, edition = {Proceedings of the 2005 conference on Designing for User eXperience}, }
