“…During their experiments, they controlled mouse cursor movements to hit targets using tilt directions. Antii et al [21] proposed a controller for an "on the move" mobile media player using gestures and audio metaphors. They showed the importance of using the gestures to control the medial player while users are involved in other activities, such as walking or running.…”

In this paper, we introduce a tilting interface that controls direction based applications in ubiquitous environments. A tilt interface is useful for situations that require remote and quick interactions or that are executed in public spaces. We explored the proposed tilting interface with different application types and classified the tilting interaction techniques. Augmenting objects with sensors can potentially address the problem of the lack of intuitive and natural input devices in ubiquitous environments. We have conducted an experiment to test the usability of the proposed tilting interface to compare it with conventional input devices and hand gestures. The experiment results showed greater improvement of the tilt gestures in comparison with hand gestures in terms of speed, accuracy, and user satisfaction.

“…mouse and keyboard, in a pervasive computing environment and, even more so, with mobile and wearable computing, there has been considerable research investigating alternative techniques. Prominent amongst these is gesture or stroke based input [Pirhonen et al 2002]. This has formed the basis for many of the input techniques used with PDAs, whether in the form of touchscreen strokes to perform commands or in the form of alphabets, such as Graffiti on the Palm range of PDAs.…”

This paper presents a common gestural interface to mobile and pervasive computing devices. We report our development of a novel technique for recognizing input strokes on a range of mobile and pervasive devices, ranging from small devices with low processing capabilities and limited input area to computers with wall-sized displays and an input area as large as can be accommodated by motion-sensing technologies such as cameras. Recent work has included implementing and testing our stroke recognition technique and associated object-tracking by camera. Ongoing and future work includes optimizing our stroke recognition and camera-based objecttracking techniques, developing input based on human body tracking and running extended usability evaluations.

“…Inspired by previous research on touch-screen interaction technologies [3,20], we compare different input and output techniques for in-vehicle systems to investigate and measure their effects on the driving activity and driver attention. The paper is structured as follows; initially we present previous research on in-vehicle systems, and secondly we introduce the interaction techniques.…”

With a growing number of in-vehicle systems integrated in contemporary cars, the risk of driver distraction and lack of attention on the primary task of driving is increasing. One major research area concerns eyesoff-the-road and mind-off-the-road that are manifested in different ways for input and output techniques. In this paper, we investigate in-vehicle systems input and output techniques to compare their effects on driving behavior and attention. We compare four techniques touch and gesture (input) and visual and audio (output) in a driving simulator. Our results showed that the separation of input and output is non-trivial. Gesture input resulted in significantly fewer eye glances compared to touch input, but also resulted in poorer primary driving task performance. Further, using audio as output resulted in significantly fewer eye glances, but on the other hand also longer task completion times and inferior primary driving task performance compared to visual output.
