Abstract

We are building a digital desktop system designed to support the tasks that are usually performed around the traditional desktop. Tabletop platforms are not new environments, especially as a research topic, but most of the existent systems try to adapt the computer work style or only serve as platform for experimenting with new features. In contrast our targets are to support the traditional work flow around desktops, not forcing the users to modify theirs methods and to build the system as a complete tool for everyday tasks We want to provide a usable environment with computer-support features for raising productivity and enhancing the user experience. For doing this we realized a field study about the traditional desktop activities and with this knowledge we designed new tools and features that fit the user real needs and environment.
