Select-and-point: a novel interface for multi-device connection and control based on simple hand gestures

Published: 05 April 2008 Publication History

Abstract

Select-and-Point provides us with a new interface and intuitive interaction style in our daily computer use. With simple selection and pointing hand gestures, users can eliminate cumbersome processes in managing connections and controls between multiple devices as well as in sharing information/data. We implemented a Select-and-Point system in an intelligent meeting room and performed a preliminary user study in this environment. The results show that Select-and-Point is easily accepted by users and it can significantly improve users' interaction with various devices in a ubiquitous computing environment.
