  • A Predictive Fingerstroke-Level Model for Smartwatch Interaction
    Multimodal Technologies and Interaction Article A Predictive Fingerstroke-Level Model for Smartwatch Interaction Shiroq Al-Megren ID Information Technology Department, King Saud University, Riyadh 12371, Saudi Arabia; [email protected]; Tel.: +966-11-805-7839 Received: 24 May 2018; Accepted: 25 June 2018; Published: 2 July 2018 Abstract: The keystroke-level model (KLM) is commonly used to predict the time it will take an expert user to accomplish a task without errors when using an interactive system. The KLM was initially intended to predict interactions in conventional set-ups, i.e., mouse and keyboard interactions. However, it has since been adapted to predict interactions with smartphones, in-vehicle information systems, and natural user interfaces. The simplicity of the KLM and its extensions, along with their resource- and time-saving capabilities, has driven their adoption. In recent years, the popularity of smartwatches has grown, introducing new design challenges due to the small touch screens and bimanual interactions involved, which make current extensions to the KLM unsuitable for modelling smartwatches. Therefore, it is necessary to study these interfaces and interactions. This paper reports on three studies performed to modify the original KLM and its extensions for smartwatch interaction. First, an observational study was conducted to characterise smartwatch interactions. Second, the unit times for the observed interactions were derived through another study, in which the times required to perform the relevant physical actions were measured. Finally, a third study was carried out to validate the model for interactions with the Apple Watch and Samsung Gear S3. The results show that the new model can accurately predict the performance of smartwatch users with a percentage error of 12.07%; a value that falls below the acceptable percentage dictated by the original KLM ~21%.

  • Did You Take a Break Today Detecting Playing Foosball Using
    The Second IEEE International Workshop on Sensing Systems and Applications Using Wrist Worn Smart Devices, 2016 Did You Take a Break Today?: Detecting Playing Foosball Using Your Smartwatch Sougata Sen‡, Kiran K. Rachuri†, Abhishek Mukherji†, Archan Misra‡ ‡Singapore Management University and †Samsung Research America ‡{sougata.sen.2012,archanm}@smu.edu.sg, †{k.rachuri,a.mukherji}@samsung.com Abstract—Prolonged working hours are a primary cause of stress, work related injuries (e.g, RSIs), and work-life imbalance in employees at a workplace. As reported by some studies, taking timely breaks from continuous work not only reduces stress and exhaustion but also improves productivity, employee bonding, and camaraderie. Our goal is to build a system that automatically detects breaks thereby assisting in maintaining healthy work- break balance. In this paper, we focus on detecting foosball breaks of employees at a workplace using a smartwatch. We selected foosball as it is one of the most commonly played games at many workplaces in the United States. Since playing foosball involves wrist and hand movement, a wrist-worn device (e.g., a smartwatch), due to its position, has a clear advantage over a smartphone for detecting foosball activity. Our evaluation using data collected from real workplace shows that we can identify with more than 95% accuracy whether a person is playing foosball or not. We also show that we can determine how long a Fig. 1: Standard Foosball Table foosball session lasted with an error of less than 3% in the best case. cluded in smartwatches (e.g., Apple Watch, Samsung Gear S2).

Researchers and producers have started to investigate alterna- tive interaction techniques. Apple and Samsung, for example, introduced digital versions of classic watch components such as the digital crown and the rotatable bezel. However, it re- mains an open question how well these components behave in terms of user interaction. Based on a self-built smartwatch prototype, we compare current interaction paradigms (touch input, rotatable bezel and digital crown) for one-dimensional tasks, i.e. scrolling in a list, two-dimensional tasks, i.e. naviga- tion on a digital map, and a complex navigation/zoom task. To check for ecological validity of our results, we conducted an additional study focusing on interaction with currently avail- Figure 1.
