Abstract

We designed and created a new self-contained tangible pen-like input device prototype that can sense all 26 contacts and works with any capacitive display using a conductive case designed with pliable corners. Contacts are distinguished using the device angle from an internal IMU. We further designed a 3D "mirror" visualization that displays a re-configurable mapping of commands to contacts to enable discovery of command-to-contact mappings.

Manipulation, Learning, and Recall with Tangible Pen-Like Input
CHI '20: Proceedings of the 2020 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems

We examine two key human performance characteristics of a pen-like tangible input device that executes a different command depending on which corner, edge, or side contacts a surface. The manipulation time when transitioning between contacts is examined ...
Joint 5D Pen Input for Light Field Displays
UIST '15: Proceedings of the 28th Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software & Technology

Light field displays allow viewers to see view-dependent 3D content as if looking through a window; however, existing work on light field display interaction is limited. Yet, they have the potential to parallel 2D pen and touch screen systems, which ...
Improving drag-and-drop on wall-size displays
GI '05: Proceedings of Graphics Interface 2005

On wall-size displays with pen or touch input, users can have difficulties reaching display contents located too high, too low, or too far away. Drag-and-drop interactions can be further complicated by bezels separating individual display units. ...
