“…Pen interaction. Haptic and tactile cues have been explored in pen interaction on screens [13,48,80], including those that provide non-controllable, sideways elastic feedback [26]. Pen-based tactile cues improve user performance (affected by a learning-curve [51]), especially for smaller targets [63].…”

We present a novel, haptic multilayer interaction approach that enables state transitions between spatially abovescreen and 2D on-screen feedback layers. This approach supports the exploration of haptic features that are hard to simulate using rigid 2D screens. We accomplish this by adding a haptic layer above the screen that can be actuated and interacted with (pressed on) while the user interacts with on-screen content using pen input. The haptic layer provides variable firmness and contour feedback, while its membrane functionality affords additional tactile cues like texture feedback. Through two user studies, we look at how users can use the layer in haptic exploration tasks, showing that users can discriminate well between different firmness levels, and can perceive object contour characteristics. Demonstrated also through an art application, the results show the potential of multilayer feedback to extend onscreen content with additional widget, tool and surface properties, as well as for user guidance.

“…To achieve this, various input modalities have been considered such as tilting, rolling [26], shaking [24] the device, as well as pressure [19], grasp [21], nearsurface interaction [17], speech recognition (LiveScribe) or just using an additional scroll wheel (Wacom Air Brush). Previous studies also considered different output modalities, such as visual feedback (using LEDs [16], embedded screens or projectors [22]), audio feedback or haptic feedback [14]. These technologies propose new pen-based interactions, but each one requires a specific device and works with prototype applications.…”

While software often allows user customization, most physical devices remain mainly static. We introduce VersaPen, an adaptable, multimodal, hot-pluggable pen for expanding input capabilities. Users can create their own pens by stacking different input/output modules that define both the look and feel of the customized device. VersaPen offers multiple advantages. Allowing in-place interaction, it reduces hand movements and avoids cluttering the interface with menus and palettes. It also enriches interaction by providing multimodal capabilities, as well as a mean to encapsulate virtual data into physical modules which can be shared by users to foster collaboration. We present various applications to demonstrate how VersaPen enables new interaction techniques.

“…In recent years there has been an increase in the amount of research focusing on the use of tactile feedback for interactions, especially on mobile devices. Lee et al [6] [4]. Touchscreens are common in mobile devices but they are smooth and featureless, la keypads.…”

The study of tactile feedback has attracted increasing interest in HCI over recent years. Similar to icons, tactile messages, or Tactons, can encode and transmit information through the touch sense [1]. We report an experiment to investigate if we can present contextual information to a user in a low attention, ambient manner. In this case, it is done by changing the tactile 'feel' of buttons on a touchscreen keyboard to indicate external events, for example when a friend is close by. Very short Tactons (<=300ms) on each key press were changed in roughness and rhythm to indicate the events. Results showed that users correctly identified the Tactons for the different events with a rate of 88% when 180 Tactons were presented in 45 minutes, and 98% when the Tactons were presented in a more realistic manner. This shows that changing tactile feedback can be an effective method of presenting ambient information on a mobile device. Tactons, tactile feedback, text entry, touchscreen mobile devices.
