Information Visualization Interface on Home Router Traffic Data for Laypersons.

With the aim to increase the awareness of the everyday internet user for the own home network traffic, we present two interactive visualization interfaces for visual exploration of home router traffic records. Thereby we differentiate between users with a present intrinsic motivation for the topic and those with absent intrinsic motivation. Therefore, gamification in the first interface is used to maintain motivation of the first type of user, while the storytelling concept based on the hero's journey in the second interface aims at increasing the perceived incentives for the second user group.
