Abstract

Mobile interactions with the physical world, meaning a person uses her mobile device as mediator for the interaction with a physical object, get more and more popular in industry and academia. Typical technologies supporting this kind of interactions are Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), visual marker recognition, Near Field Communication (NFC), or Bluetooth. Currently, there only exists very little tool support for building systems that consider this kind of interactions. But this is necessary because of the complexity, variety and distribution of such systems. A framework would also support the development and the dissemination of physical mobile interactions in our everyday live. Therefore we present in this paper the requirements for such tool support, the architecture of the Physical Mobile Interaction Framework (PMIF) and a first version of the implementation.
