  • Hidden Markets: UI Design for a P2P Backup Application
    Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2010
    Co-Authors: Sven Seuken, Desney S Tan, Kamal Jain, Mary Czerwinski
    Abstract:

    The Internet has allowed market-based systems to become increasingly pervasive. In this paper we explore the role of user interface (UI) design for these markets. Different UIs inducedifferentmentalmodelswhichinturndeterminehow users understand and interact with a market. Thus, the intersection of UI design and economics is a novel and important research area. We make three contributions at this intersection. First, we present a novel design paradigm which we call hidden markets. The primary goal of hidden markets is to hide as much of the market complexities as possible. Second,weexplorethisnewdesignparadigmusingone particular example: a P2P Backup Application. We explain themarketunderlyingthissystemandprovideadetaileddescription of the new UI we developed. Third, we present results from a formative usability study. Our findings indicate that a number of users could benefit from a market-based P2P Backup system. Most users intuitively understood the give & take principle as well as the bundle constraints of the market. However, the pricing aspect was difficult to discover/understand for many users and thus needs further investigation. Overall, the results are encouraging and show promise for the hidden market paradigm.

    Abstract:

    The Internet has allowed market-based systems to become increasingly pervasive. In this paper we explore the role of user interface (UI) design for these markets. Different UIs induce different mental models which in turn determine how users understand and interact with a market. Thus, the intersection of UI design and economics is a novel and important research area. We make three contributions at this intersection. First, we present a novel design paradigm which we call hidden markets. The primary goal of hidden markets is to hide as much of the market complexities as possible. Second, we explore this new design paradigm using one particular example: a P2P Backup Application. We explain the market underlying this system and provide a detailed description of the new UI we developed. Third, we present results from a formative usability study.

  • System design of time-of-flight range camera for car park assist and Backup Application
    2008 IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Workshops CVPR Workshops, 2008
    Co-Authors: Soumyadipta Acharya, Colin Tracey, Abbas Rafii
    Abstract:

    External sensing Applications in automobiles are enabled by Microsystems that can sense and analyze 3D environment. In this paper, we describe the system design of a time-of-flight (TOF) 3D range camera for parking assist and Backup Application. The camera operates based on measuring the time delay of modulated infrared light from an active emitter, using a single detector chip fabricated on standard CMOS process. The system analysis approach involves a step-by-step process that maps the Application requirements to a series of camera design decisions producing the specification for a camera solution that is optimized for size, cost, power and Application performance. The analysis process uses the empirical and theoretical performance properties of a 3D TOF sensor and the camera optics. It defines the profile of an optimal light source that delivers the necessary depth resolution for the given volume of interest in the Application.
