As computing capabilities grow and size shrinks, the most pronounced limitation with mobile devices is display size. With the adoption of touch as the de facto input, the mobile screen doubles as a display and an input device. Touchscreen interfaces have several limitations: the act of touching t

Abstract:

Context. Virtual reality is getting closer and closer to being realized with new technologies emerging. This will lead to new ways to experience interactive worlds such as games. In order to keep the highest immersion possible new ways of interaction are needed. Objectives. In this thesis a control method using motion tracking devices such as the PlayStation Move and the Microsoft Kinect is examined as a method of interaction. This is then compared to the use of a gamepad in a prototype first person puzzle game without a virtual reality device. The aim is to discover how it affects the experie

Abstract:

At the time of writing, touch is revolutionizing the market with devices that have touch as the primary input modality. In this thesis we have been able to explore how another input modality, touchless, can complement touch in everyday applications. Touchless refers to an input method that is able to recognize hand gestures and act upon them. To investigate how these two input modalities can be combined, an Android prototype application featuring both touch and touchless was created. We chose to create a recipe reader because we found that a lot of people can relate to having soggy hands in th

Abstract:

The research community around gesture-based interaction has so far not paid attention to the possibility of replacing the keyboard with natural gestures for writing purposes. Additionally, insight into the actual user experience of such an interaction style is only insufficiently provided. This work presents a novel approach for text input that is based on a manual alphabet, MATImyo. The hand alphabet was developed in a user-centered design process involving potential users in pre-studies, design process and evaluation procedure.

L'entrée multi-points offre un canal d'interaction très expressif pour les dispositifs équipés d'une technologie tactile multi-points. Cependant, alors que la taille du canal de communication est, en théorie, très grande, la plupart des systèmes n'en font, en pratique, qu'un usage très limité. Cet état de fait est probablement dû à la difficulté de gérer un grand nombre de gestes multi-points pour deux raisons principales: (1) les limites cognitives et motrices des humains et (2) les difficultés techniques pour l'élaboration de systèmes de reconnaissance robustes.

Abstract:

Augmented Reality (AR) has the possibility of interacting with virtual objects and real objects at the same time since it combines the real world with computer-generated contents seamlessly. However, most AR interface research uses general Virtual Reality (VR) interaction techniques without modification. In this research we develop a multimodal interface (MMI) for AR with speech and 3D hand gesture input. We develop a multimodal signal fusion architecture based on the user behaviour while interacting with the MMI that provides more effective and natural multimodal signal fusion. Speech and 3D

Abstract:

In a large number of electronic devices, users interact with the system by navigating through various menus. Auditory menus can complement or even replace visual menus, so research on auditory menus has recently increased with mobile devices as well as desktop computers. Despite the potential importance of auditory displays on touch screen devices, little research has been attempted to enhance the effectiveness of auditory menus for those devices. In the present study, I investigated how advanced auditory cues enhance auditory menu navigation on a touch screen smartphone, especially for new in

Ownership of mobile devices, such as tablets and smartphones, has quickly risen in the last decade. Unsurprisingly, they are now being integrated into the training and classroom setting. Specifically, the U.S. Army has mapped out a plan in the Army Learning Model of 2015 to utilize mobile devices for training purposes. However, before these tools can be used effectively, it is important to identify how the tablets' unique properties can be leveraged. For this dissertation, the touch interface and the interactivity that tablets afford were investigated using a procedural-motor task. The procedu
