ABSTRACT
In this study, we propose a novel wearable device for sensing physical contact among people. This device is realized to detect and record the touch of users by using bodily communication. The proposed device provides a novel playful interaction method between humans.

Biometric Touch Sensing: Seamlessly Augmenting Each Touch with Continuous Authentication
UIST '15: Proceedings of the 28th Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software & TechnologyCurrent touch devices separate user authentication from regular interaction, for example by displaying modal login screens before device usage or prompting for in-app passwords, which interrupts the interaction flow. We propose biometric touch sensing, ...
Towards Social Touch Intelligence: Developing a Robust System for Automatic Touch Recognition
ICMI '14: Proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Multimodal InteractionTouch behavior is of great importance during social interaction. Automatic recognition of social touch is necessary to transfer the touch modality from interpersonal interaction to other areas such as Human-Robot Interaction (HRI). This paper describes ...
A Capacitive Touch Sensing Technique with Series-connected Sensing Electrodes
UIST '17: Proceedings of the 30th Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and TechnologyTouch sensing with multiple electrodes allows expressive touch interactions. The adaptability and flexibility of the sensor are important in efficiently prototyping touch based systems. The proposed technique uses capacitive touch sensing and simplifies ...
