Abstract

The Five Design-Sheet method can be used to plan a huge variety of interactive tools, interfaces and algorithms. It would be impossible to run through examples of every type. In this chapter, we focus on two example scenarios to demonstrate the full process. The first example explores different ways to capture and display heritage monuments. The second example explores how data visualisation and animation can be used to explain the stages of a computer algorithm.
