Abstract
Spherical displays afford social interaction, where users can crowd around the display to explore content together. Related work has explored different aspects of public display interaction, but the distribution and layout of content is often ignored by researchers and users alike. We present Venue Finder, an interactive spherical display that provided information about concert venues during a city-wide music festival. We deployed Venue Finder in a comparative evaluation using three techniques to distribute content on the spherical display; map based, linear, and distributed. We deployed the display in a concert hall for six days per condition for a total of eighteen days. The results showed that the linear condition resulting in the longest interaction times and largest proportion of touches for content viewing. Based on our results, we propose three design recommendations for content distribution on spherical displays.
