privacy and sharing information on spherical and large flat displays
It is important for users to understand the fundamental tradeoff between sharing information and preserving privacy in collaboration. The more information is shared about one's actions, the less privacy is preserved. Sharing information may, in fact, counter-intuitively result in increased social stress in some cases. Maintaining privacy while allowing for the sharing of information is an important consideration for successful collaboration and we believe display form factor matters for this tradeoff. New form factors such as spherical displays support privacy naturally, by limiting a user's view to at most one hemisphere. In this video we show how different types of interactive large display form factor can provide a balance between privacy and the sharing of information in a cooperative game.
