Studying User-Defined Gestures Toward Off the Screen Interactions

Published: 15 November 2015 Publication History

Abstract

This study describes the concept of off-the-screen interactions. People often point or gesture not only on the touch-sensitive screen of a device but also around the screen. In this study on off-the-screen interactions, we investigated user-defined gestures on the surrounding area of the screen through a user study using paper prototypes. Through our results, we found that there are different styles of off-the-screen interactions and requirements that are to be considered for realizing our concept.
