Introduction Developing innovative mobile interfaces is a very active area of research within the field of HCI and Computer Science. Mobile devices have limited screen size and making effective and clever use of the space available is crucial to ensuring good usability. This project proposes the development of an interface that does the following: a very large virtual desktop space is imagined to exist, and the mobile phone screen is used as a "peephole" into that space.
