Traditional systems with pointing devices, lack swipe gestural interaction. Nowadays, there are a lot of new pointing devices which provides the facility for swipe gestures. But they lack user friendliness. In these systems, the user has to interact with the system in a way which is different from traditional methods. A very good example is Apple's Mac Book touchpad, in which the user has to use three fingers to perform a swipe; for doing mouse operations only one finger is required. This paper focuses on the implementation of the air swipe feature for the above mentioned systems, which does not require any external adaptation on the user's part. The paper discusses how the swipe gestures could be performed without interfering with the normal pointing-device operations, along with a brief description of the approach used to implement this feature.
In recent years, the popularity for natural interfaces has experienced tremendous growth. Natural interfaces provide the computers or the so called machines with a sense of humanity. The basic knowledge required to understand and utilize a computer system is reduced to a minimal extent. There have been recent commercial developments in the area of natural interfaces, including the Microsoft XBOX Kinect and Nintendo WII. However, the capital cost of such a system remains very high.The primary intention of this paper is to design a technique to redesign every aspect of our interaction with the computer. It explores and develops an interface that helps simple computer systems to support gestural interface. We could utilize the low cost cameras available with the laptop or desktop to support detection of human gestures and multiple touch experiences, which would ultimately lead to the direct interaction of computers with humans. In such a system, the need for external input devices like mouse and keyboard could be eliminated. The paper discusses how such a system can be implemented, along with a brief description of the approach used.
