Abstract

FogScreen is a free space 2D projection screen, which enables to touch and walk through an immaterial image. FogScreen consists of flowing air with a little visible humidity in the center of flow, and enables high-quality projected images in thin air, and many new applications.The FogScreen can be made interactive. Robust tracking of the user's pointing is a key element of the interactive system. In this short paper we present robust tracking employing laser scanning.

B2B-Swipe: Swipe Gesture for Rectangular Smartwatches from a Bezel to a Bezel
CHI '16: Proceedings of the 2016 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems

We present B2B-Swipe, a single-finger swipe gesture for a rectangular smartwatch that starts at a bezel and ends at a bezel to enrich input vocabulary. There are 16 possible B2B-Swipes because a rectangular smartwatch has four bezels. Moreover, B2B-...
Tactile feedback on mid-air gestural interaction with a large fogscreen
AcademicMindtrek '20: Proceedings of the 23rd International Conference on Academic Mindtrek

Projected walk-through fogscreens can be used to render user interfaces, but lack inherent tactile feedback, thus hindering the user experience. This study examines this by investigating wireless wearable vibrotactile feedback on mid-air hand gesture ...
