Abstract

We propose a novel interaction method “point-shoot-and-paste” for transferring a photo into the specified position of a PC document directly and intuitively from a DSC; a user aims a DSC at the pasting position in the screen of the PC, presses the shutter button, and then the photo is transferred and pasted in the position. This method is advantageous because it is intuitive and doesn´t need any special sensors to specify the location of pasting. Our middleware will also enable generic applications to utilize “point-shoot-and-paste”.
