Photohelix: Browsing, Sorting and Sharing Digital Photo Collections

In this paper we debut Photohelix, a novel interactive system for browsing, sorting and sharing digital images. We present our design rationale for such a system and introduce Photohelix as a prototype application featuring a novel visualization and interaction technique for media browsing on interactive tabletops. We conducted a user study in order to evaluate and verify our design. We will present our findings in this paper and discuss further implications for future development of such systems derived from our experiences with Photohelix.
