Orientation sensing for gesture-based interaction with smart artifacts
نویسندگان
چکیده
Orientation sensing is considered an important means to implement embedded technology enhanced artifacts (often referred to as ‘smart artifacts’), exhibiting embodied means of interaction based on their position, orientation, and the respective dynamics. Considering artifacts subject to manual (or ‘by-hand’) manipulation by the user, we identify hand worn, hand carried and (hand) graspable real world objects as exhibiting different artifact orientation dynamics, justifying an analysis along these three categories. We refer to orientation dynamics as ‘gestures’ in an abstract sense, and present a general framework for orientation sensor based gesture recognition. The framework specification is independent of sensor technology and classification methods, and elaborates an application-independent set of gestures. It enables multi sensor interoperability and it accommodates a variable number of sensors. A core component of the framework is a gesture library that contains gestures from three categories: hand gestures, gestures of artifact held permanently and gestures of artifact that are detached from the hand and are manipulated occasionally. An inertial orientation sensing based gesture detection and recognition system is developed and composed into a gesture-based interaction development framework. The use of this framework is demonstrated with the development of tangible remote controls for a media player, both in hardware and in software. q 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

3D gesture recognition and tracking are highly desired features of interaction design in future mobile and smart environments. Specifically, in virtual/augmented reality applications, intuitive interaction with the physical space seems unavoidable and 3D gestural interaction might be the most effective alternative for the current input facilities such as touchscreens. In this paper, we introduc...

In modern smart environments, traditional interaction devices such as keyboards or mice are often not available or at least not desirable. In some of today’s devices, touch sensing and computer vision for gesture recognition enables a more natural way of interacting. However, high cost, high burden of instrumenting the environment and other disadvantages limit their applications for pervasive c...

Pervasive computing has postulated to invisibly integrate technology into everyday objects in such a way, that these objects turn into smart things. Not only a single object of this kind is supposed to represent the interface among the ‘‘physical world’’ of atoms and the ‘‘digital world’’ of bits, but a whole landscapes of them. The interaction with such technology rich artefacts is supposed to...
