Interactive Tabletops and Surfaces 2009
Based on the overwhelming success of the previous Tabletop/TIS workshops, ITS 2009 is moving to a "conference" status and is introducing some new forums to its technical program, including invited Tutorials and Interactive Posters. ITS is a premier venue for presenting research in the design and use of new and emerging tabletop and interactive surface technologies. As a new community, we embrace the growth of the discipline in a wide variety of areas, including innovations in ITS hardware, software, interaction design, and studies expanding our understanding of design considerations of ITS technologies and of their applications in modern society.
