Touch Affordances

چکیده
The workshop “Touch Affordances” addresses a concept relevant to human computer interactions based on touch. The main topic is the challenge of applying the notion of affordances to domains related to touch interactions (e.g. (multi)touch screens, RFID & NFC, ubiquitous interfaces). The goals of this workshop are to launch a community of researchers, designers, etc. interested in this topic, to create a common understanding of the field of touch affordances and to generate ideas for new research areas for intuitive touch interactions. The workshop will be highly interactive and will have a creative, generative character.

From Affordances to Situated Affordances in Robotics - Why Context is Important
We propose situated affordances as an extension to the well known concept of affordances. Situated affordances extend affordances by taking the environmental context, in which an object is embedded, into account. We argue that the extended concept allows the learning of qualitatively more complex tasks. In this paper we report the conceptual result of ongoing work in which a cognitive robotic a...
متن کاملChildren’s Learning from Touch Screens: A Dual Representation Perspective
Parents and educators often expect that children will learn from touch screen devices, such as during joint e-book reading. Therefore an essential question is whether young children understand that the touch screen can be a symbolic medium - that entities represented on the touch screen can refer to entities in the real world. Research on symbolic development suggests that symbolic understandin...
متن کاملSuburban Birmingham: designing accessible cultural history using multi-touch tables
The Suburban Birmingham project aimed to allow the exploration of a collection of resources originally presented through a website on a touch table. In this paper we will explore some of the issues illustrated by this project involving the manipulation and sharing of resources on multi-user applications in public spaces, including ownership, affordances, and managing and interpreting gestures i...
متن کاملHoverSpace - Analyses of the Perceived Spatial Affordances of Hover Interaction Above Tabletop Surfaces
Recent developments in the area of stereoscopic displays and tracking technologies have paved the way to combine touch interaction on interactive surfaces with spatial interaction above the surface of a stereoscopic display. This holistic design space supports novel affordances and user experiences during touch interaction, but also induce challenges to the interaction design. In this paper we ...
متن کاملDo we need further “multi-touch” touch affordances?
People have developed sophisticated skills for sensing and manipulating their physical environments [1] with their fingers and hands. And more and more user interfaces taken advantage of that and allowing touch input to support these skills. Especially multi-touch interaction has received considerable attention in the last few years and the media interest in multi-touch interaction with large a...
