analysed for different diseases and sensitivity to medication. The results, which revealed risks of heart disease, diabetes and prostate cancer, could pave the way to similar tests for the general public.” The Daily Mirror on the same day was equally succinct, but at the same time both more and less informative: “A scientist has become the first person in the world to have his DNA screened.

Hidden touch: Passive touch output in tangible interfaces

In this paper we explore passive touch as a means to give output in a tangible user interface. We present a new interaction style for giving secret information to digital tabletop game players through tangible play pieces that use passive touch. Author

Paper-based, capacitive touch pads.

Metallized paper is patterned to create touch pads of arrayed buttons that are sensitive to contact with both bare and gloved fingers. The paper-based keypad detects the change in capacitance associated with the touch of a finger to one of its buttons. Mounted on an alarmed cardboard box, the keypad requires the appropriate sequence of touches to disarm the system.
