Situated Visualization in Motion

TL;DR
This work defines visualization in motion as visual data representations used in contexts that exhibit relative motion between a viewer and an entire visualization and investigates how motion factors can affect the reading accuracy of visualizations.
Abstract
We contribute a first design space on visualizations in motion and the design of a pilot study we plan to run in the fall. Visualizations can be useful in contexts where either the observation is in motion or the whole visualization is moving at various speeds. Imagine, for example, displays attached to an athlete or animal that show data about the wearer -- for example, captured from a fitness tracking band; or a visualization attached to a moving object such as a vehicle or a soccer ball. The ultimate goal of our research is to inform the design of visualizations under motion.
