Tapping Anywhere : A Position - free Wearable Input Device
نویسنده
چکیده
" Tapping Anywhere " is a new input device that can control wearables mounted on any position of a human body by tapping actions with foot or hand. A body-mounted sensor detects changes in the body's static charge or static capacity caused by the tapping action. This method can be used not only for controlling wearables with rhythmic commands, but also for monitoring activities in everyday life.

Wearable textile input device with multimodal sensing for eyes-free mobile interaction during daily activities
As pervasive computing is widely available during daily activities, wearable input devices which promote an eyes-free interaction are needed for easy access and safety. We propose a textile wearable device which enables a multimodal sensing input for an eyes-free mobile interaction during daily activities. Although existing input devices possess multimodal sensing capabilities with a small form...

متن کاملPosition Teaching of a Robot Arm by Demonstration with a Wearable Input Device
This paper describes the first prototype of a “Programming by demonstration” (PbD) system for position teaching of a robot manipulator. A new approach for enabling PbD using supervised learning is presented, by connecting a wearable input device for sensing human arm movements to the software controller of a robot arm. The method does not require analytical modelling of either the human arm or ...
