ABSTRACT
We introduce Tap4Light, an interaction technique for controlling smart lighting systems with finger tapping gestures captured with a five-finger augmentation device. Tap4Light employs simple tap input that, when combined across all of the five fingers of the hand, enables a rich gesture vocabulary for controlling applications, systems, and services in the context of Ambient Intelligence environments. We demonstrate Tap4Light with a set of eleven tap gestures, the Tap Strap 2 wearable, and Philips Hue smart lamps.

iFAD Gestures: Understanding Users’ Gesture Input Performance with Index-Finger Augmentation Devices
CHI '23: Proceedings of the 2023 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsWe examine gestures performed with a class of input devices with distinctive quality properties in the wearables landscape, which we call “index-Finger Augmentation Devices” (iFADs). We introduce a four-level taxonomy to characterize the diversity of ...
TV Channels in Your Pocket! Linking Smart Pockets to Smart TVs
TVX '19: Proceedings of the 2019 ACM International Conference on Interactive Experiences for TV and Online VideoWe present a gesture-based user interface for smart TVs that employs deictic gestures to control the content displayed on the TV screen. Our interface implements an instance of the “Smart-Pockets” interaction technique, where links to digital content, ...
Magic finger: always-available input through finger instrumentation
UIST '12: Proceedings of the 25th annual ACM symposium on User interface software and technologyWe present Magic Finger, a small device worn on the fingertip, which supports always-available input. Magic Finger inverts the typical relationship between the finger and an interactive surface: with Magic Finger, we instrument the user's finger itself, ...
