Title:


    Palm+Act: Operation by Visually Captured 3D Force on Palm

Description:


    Recently, there has been considerable interest in technologies that appropriate human body parts, especially the skin, as an input surface for human-computer interfaces. Since human skin is always available and highly accessible, such on-body touch interfaces enable the control of various systems in ubiquitous environments. An interface utilizing skin as an input surface provides a mobile input system that does not require dedicated control devices for a specific system. There are many researches that demonstrate the concept of on-body touch interaction with a ubiquitous sensing device [Harrison et al. 2011].
