Nearly-Integral Manipulation of Rotary Widgets

چکیده
We present a work in progress that investigates the manipulation of virtual rotary knobs using a device with three degrees-offreedom. We draw a brief parallel between handling real knobs in professional sound appliances and interacting with desktop rotary widgets. Then, we present an interaction technique aimed to support a natural mapping, to reduce the activation time, and to enhance the fluidity along the gestures that compose this activity.

Multitouch Gestures for Constrained Transformation of 3D Objects
3D transformation widgets allow constrained manipulations of 3D objects and are commonly used in many 3D applications for fine-grained manipulations. Since traditional transformation widgets have been mainly designed for mouse-based systems, they are not user friendly for multitouch screens. There is little research on how to use the extra input bandwidth of multitouch screens to ease constrain...
متن کاملSketching and Composing Widgets for 3D Manipulation
We present an interface for 3D object manipulation in which standard transformation tools are replaced with transient 3D widgets invoked by sketching context-dependent strokes. The widgets are automatically aligned to axes and planes determined by the user’s stroke. Sketched pivot-points further expand the interaction vocabulary. Using gestural commands, these basic elements can be assembled in...
متن کاملTurnector: Tangible ControlWidgets For Capacitive Touchscreen Devices
This paper details the development of Turnector, a control system based upon tangible widgets that are manipulated on the touchscreen of a capacitive touch device. Turnector widgets are modelled on rotary faders and aim to connect the user to parameters in their audio software in a manner analogous to the one-to-one control mapping utilised in analogue studio equipment. The system aims to strea...
متن کاملWidget - Oriented Consumer Programming
Today’s consumer network applications are composed of complex sets of interconnected hardware and software components. Application providers build component-level workflows to provide required functional properties and quality of service (QoS). However, to enhance the quality of user experience (QoE), applications are nowadays exposed to consumers as sets of widgets, i.e. compact and fully func...
متن کاملSpace Station Alpha Joint Bearing
Perhaps the most critical structural system aboard the Space Station is the Solar Alpha Rotary Joint which helps align the power generation system with the sun (Figure 1). The joint must provide structural support and controlled rotation to the outboard transverse booms as well as power and data transfer across the joint. The Solar Alpha Rotary Joint is composed of two transition sections and a...
