Lit Review: BYOD: Bring Your Own Device

BYOD: Bring Your Own Device. (Ballagas, Rohs et al. 2004)

The authors break down large displays into personal, semi-public, and public. Their categorization mirrors those found in other readings, this paper in particular focuses on large public displays. The authors list a series of design considerations for building large public displays, including such facets as serendipity, information security & privacy, and multi-user. The rest of their workshop paper discusses existing technologies for interacting with large public displays (primarily PDAs) and using camera phones to read digital codes as an interaction method for large displays. This workshop paper is expanded upon by Ballagas 2005 where he discusses two novel interaction techniques that do not require visual tagging. The value of this paper is in it’s design considerations, as they provide a good starting point for building large public displays, and help us as researchers understand the existing public display design space.
