ABSTRACT
The LightSense system [Olwal 2006] promotes printed public information sources, such as maps, into interactive surfaces enriched with digital information, which is accessed through a spatially aware display [Fitzmaurice 1993]. Using outside-in tracking, LED lights on cell phones are located using an instrumented environment with either a combination of a computer/camera or microcontroller/photosensors. The location is continuously sent to the phone over Bluetooth, such that context-sensitive information can be shown as the device is moved by the user.

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 SystemsWe 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-...
Bezel swipe: conflict-free scrolling and multiple selection on mobile touch screen devices
CHI '09: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsZooming user interfaces are increasingly popular on mobile devices with touch screens. Swiping and pinching finger gestures anywhere on the screen manipulate the displayed portion of a page, and taps open objects within the page. This makes navigation ...
Touch & Interact: touch-based interaction with a tourist application
MobileHCI '08: Proceedings of the 10th international conference on Human computer interaction with mobile devices and servicesTouch & Interact is an interaction technique which combines mobile phones and public displays. The motivation for the project is to overcome the intrinsic output limitations of mobile phones. Touch & Interact extends the phone output to a public display ...
