GIAnT - Visualizing Group Interaction at Large Wall Displays

Explore a 20-minute conference talk from the ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems that introduces GIAnT, a toolkit for visualizing group interactions at large wall displays. Delve into the challenges of analyzing multi-user interactions and discover how GIAnT provides a set of visualizations to support efficient investigation. Learn about the toolkit's key features, including a novel timeline visualization for movement, wall visualization for interactions and gaze data, and floor visualization for user positions. Understand how GIAnT can streamline user studies by reducing the need for time-consuming video analysis and coding. Gain insights into the toolkit's extensible design, practical applications in evaluating cooperative games, and its potential impact on research involving large interactive displays. The presentation covers the software architecture, Python library, and open-source nature of GIAnT, concluding with a Q&A session.
