Abstract
We propose a new tangible visualization table for intuitive and effective visualization of terrain data transferred from a remote server in real time. The shape display approximating the height field of remote terrain data is generated by linear actuators, and the corresponding texture image is projected onto the shape display. To minimize projection distortions, we present a sophisticated technique for projection mapping. Gesture-based user interfaces facilitate intuitive manipulations of visualization results. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our system by displaying and manipulating various terrain data using gesture-based interfaces.

Summary
Over the past several decades, visualization technologies and display devices have progressed rapidly. Depending on the type of raw data, different techniques [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11] have been developed, and some of them proposed specialized display devices [3,5,7,9] for enhancing visualization effects. We propose a new tangible visualization table for intuitive and realistic display of remote terrain data using gesture-based user interactions. We develop a new tangible visualization table that supports intuitive and realistic visualization of terrain data transferred from a remote server in real time.
