Locating Physical Interface Objects on Interactive Surfaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pin&Play has enabled a new type of surface-based physical user interface, characterised by dynamic arrangement of interface objects on a surface area. Previous work has shown that this affords rapid re-arrangement of the spatial layout of interface objects, for example in adaptation to user preferences, but the Pin&Play system did not support tracking of object locations on the surface. In this paper, we investigate and compare two practical location techniques for interactive surfaces that are based on external sensing: detection of surface events using load sensors, and camera-based detection using object beacons.

Augmenting Interactive Tabletops with Translucent Tangible Controls
Multi-touch surfaces enable multi-hand and multi-person direct manipulation interfaces. However, they lack haptic feedback. Tangible interfaces (TUIs) are a promising approach to this issue but most are special-purpose with fixed physical and visual appearance. This chapter provides an overview of recent work to add haptic feedback to interactive surfaces, including haptic and tactile displays,...
متن کاملRay Tracing Non-Polygonal Objects: Implementation and Performance Analysis using Embree
Free-form surfaces and implicit surfaces must be tessellated before being rendered with rasterization techniques. However ray tracing provides the means to directly render such objects without the need to first convert into polygonal meshes. Since ray tracing can handle triangle meshes as well, the question of which method is most suitable in terms of performance, quality and memory usage is ad...
متن کاملLive Mesh: an Interactive 3d Image Segmentation Tool
Image segmentation is the process by which objects are extracted from their surroundings in images. Segmentation in two dimensional images is a well-researched area, with both user-interactive and non-user-interactive tools to perform this function. While research has been done in three-dimensional image segmentation, few user-interactive tools exist that work directly in 3D. We present Live Me...
متن کاملInteractive Surfaces
The world that Weiser had in mind is where the objects interact to satisfy our needs in a clear view form could not exist without considering some interaction with those same objects. So, with this in mind, we decided to deepen into this subject that links the digital with the physical world. The report shows some actual commercial solutions that are based on interactive surfaces and points out...
متن کاملInteractive 3D Displays
This seminar report studies the notion of interactive displays and is based on four papers, three out of which are related to interaction with 3D displays. The papers are organized in a way such that every subsequent paper supplements some of the limitations of the previous one. The first paper is a project related to 2D projections with interactive surfaces and it stimulates the necessity for ...
