Overview Short recap Results & Conclusions Infographics New Idea & Literature Dynamic Infographics Planning + Statistics 5. Results & Conclusions Infographics Infographic > Text (7/9 subjects) Visual helps to remember (6/7) Short, faster to read (4/7) Sensor output Higher meditation at pie charts (Vacation) (5/7) Lower meditation at enumeration (Mount Everest) (4/6) Attention didnt show patterns 6. Results & Conclusions Infographics Least preferred infographic London Underground (5/9) Mount Everest (3/9) Why? Too much information (7/9) Cluttered, unclear (5/9) Preferred infographic Vacation (5/9) Mount Everest (4/9) Why? Small amount of (textual) information (7/9) Easy to read/compare (4/9) Read depending on level of interest (4/9) 7.

Overview Short recap Results & Conclusions Infographics New Idea & Literature Dynamic Infographics Planning + Statistics 9. New Idea Subjects like infographics with small amount of information More information good when interested Show information based on interest? Interactive Infographics 10. How Users Perceive and Use Interactive Information Graphics: An Exploratory Study M. Burmester, M. Mast, R. Tille, W. Weber 14 subjects read 4 infographics Conclusions: Users act interest driven Discouraged by high information density Story problem Interactivity problem 11. The Transformation of Information Visualization: An Evolving Form of Interactive Storytelling G. Krafte Infographic leads to 2 new stakeholders Designer Statistician Interactivity solves problem partially Story problem 12. Overview Short recap Results & Conclusions Infographics New Idea & Literature Dynamic Infographics Planning + Statistics 13. Dynamic Infographics Idea Amount of information controlled automatically Interest level measured by brainwave Gives possibility of low information density Solves interactivity problem (Partially) solves story problem (Partially) solves designer/statistician problem 14. Dynamic Infographics Experiment http://www.space.com/ http://www.lenstore.co.uk http://practicalaction.org 15. Dynamic Infographics Experiment 3 different policies to measure interest Attention Meditation Combination Questions afterwards: Where you interested? Did you want to see extra information? Did you like the kind of extra information you got? Which infographic do you like/dislike? 16. Dynamic Infographics Demo 17. Dynamic Infographics Results & Conclusions Dynamic infographics preferred over static (7/8) Preferred kind of extra information: Linked with main content (6/8) About the same topic (0/8) Depends on topic (2/8) Representation of extra information: Surprised by suddenly appearing extra part (5/8) Want option to see extra information again (5/8) Better link with part of infographic it belongs to (3/8) 18. Dynamic Infographics Results & Conclusions Least preferred infographic Big Bang Theory(6/8) Drought (3/8) Why? Too much information (5/8) Cluttered, unclear (4/8) Bad extra information (3/8) Not enough textual explanations (3/8) Preferred infographic Eyes (6/8) Drought(2/8) Why? Small amount of (textual) information (6/8) Good extra information (4/8) Interesting topic (4/8) Good graphics (3/8) 19. Dynamic Infographics Results & Conclusions Drought infographic: Extra information contained too much text in comparison to the main infographic (6/8) 5/8 didnt even read it! Amount of extra information should be balanced 20. Dynamic Infographics Results & Conclusions 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 3210 #SUBJECTS #INFOGRAPHICS WHERE POLICY WAS USEFUL Policy usefulness for measuring interest Attention Meditation Combined 21. Dynamic Infographics Example Success Top figures: measured attention Bottom figures: meditation Subject comments: Medium interest in 1st High interest in 2nd Low interest in 3rd 22. Dynamic Infographics Example Failure Top figures: measured attention Bottom figures: meditation Subject comments: High interest in 1st Low interest in 2nd Medium interest in 3rd 23. Dynamic Infographics Next Iteration Use attention to measure interest (calibration needed?) Layout changes Extra parts are too surprising Possibility to see shown parts again (or dont hide them?) Clearer link between main/extra part Eye-tracker? 24. Overview Short recap Results & Conclusions Infographics New Idea & Literature Dynamic Infographics Planning + Statistics 25.
