3D Object Clouds: Viewing Virtual Objects in Interactive Clouds on Mobile Devices

We are recruiting participants to take part in a research study that evaluates the animation design of a new object selection method called Interactive 3D-object Clouds for selecting objects on a tablet. We are looking for members of the Dalhousie University community (e.g., students, faculty, staff) who are not color blind, can speak and read English fluently and have experience with touch screen devices.
The study will be conducted in the Mona Campbell building of Dalhousie University, and will take approximately 40 minutes. Firstly, a researcher will go through introduction section of the study and ask you to sign a consent form to do the study. Then you will need to fill out a background questionnaire. After that, you will perform several tasks related to the selection of 3D models on a tablet. Finally, there will be 3 single page multiple choice questionnaires that will be filled out (one for each two of the 6 tasks) and a short interview. Compensation is $10 for participation in the study.
If you are interested in participating, please contact Xiaoting Hong (x.hong@dal.ca).
