In a paper for the CHIIR conference 2020 , we explored the question of how to design user interfaces for searching and retrieving 3D models in a digital humanities context. The short paper, “More than just a Picture” – The Importance of Context in Search User Interfaces for Three-Dimensional Content , has been published in the proceedings of the CHIIR conference 2020 . The paper is summarized in a blogpost on the Virtual Interiors website (see below).
An image summarizing the importance of spatial context when searching for 3D objects. In particular: object properties (white), object relationships (orange) and perception of space (green).
