A Storyboard-Based Interface for Mobile Video Browsing

Abstract

We present an interface design for video browsing on mobile devices such as tablets that is based on storyboards and optimized with respect to content visualization and interaction design. In particular, we consider scientific results from our previous studies on mobile visualization (e.g., about optimum image sizes) and interaction (e.g., human perception and classification performance for different scrolling gestures) in order to create an interface for intuitive and efficient video content access. Our work aims at verifying if and to what degree optimized small screen designs utilizing touch screen gestures can compete with browsing methods on desktop PCs featuring significantly larger screen estate as well as more sophisticated input devices and interaction modes.
