To facilitate fast and convenient searches we propose an alternative interface that takes advantage of 3D graphics and arranges images on a rotatable globe according to color similarity. In a user study we compare the new design to the iPad's image browser. Results collected from 24 participants show that for color-sorted image collections the globe can reduce search time by 23% without causing more errors and that it is perceived as being fun to use and preferred over the standard browsing interface by 70% of the participants.}, isbn10 = {978-1-4503-1089-5}, language = {EN}, location = {Nara, Japan}, talkdate = {2012.10.31}, talktype = {registered}, url = {http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2393347&coll=DL&dl=ACM&CFID=159013035&CFTOKEN=94655035} }
