Abstract
This paper describes the Universal Interaction Controller (UIC), a user interface framework and device designed to support interactions in ubiquitous computing environments, and the in-situ visualisation of ambient information in environments equipped with multiple heterogeneous displays. We describe the device and the infrastructure we have created to support it. We present the use of augmented reality to display information that is outside the bounds of traditional display surfaces.
