    Group Touch: Distinguishing Tabletop Users in Group Settings via Statistical Modeling of Touch Pairs Abigail C. Evans,1 Katie Davis,1 James Fogarty,2 Jacob O. Wobbrock1 1The Information School, 2Computer Science & Engineering DUB Group | University of Washington Seattle, WA, USA 98195 {abievans, kdavis78, wobbrock}@uw.edu, [email protected] ABSTRACT We present Group Touch, a method for distinguishing among multiple users simultaneously interacting with a tabletop computer using only the touch information supplied by the device. Rather than tracking individual users for the duration of an activity, Group Touch distinguishes users from each other by modeling whether an interaction with the tabletop corresponds to either: (1) a new user, or (2) a change in users currently interacting with the tabletop. This reframing of the challenge as distinguishing users rather than tracking and identifying them allows Group Touch to support multi-user collaboration in real-world settings without custom instrumentation. Specifically, Group Touch examines pairs of touches and uses the difference in orientation, distance, and time between two touches to Figure 1. Group Touch can distinguish among users “in the wild” determine whether the same person performed both touches with a mean accuracy of 92.92% (SD=3.94%) using only touch in the pair. Validated with field data from high-school information. Pictured above are high school students in a classroom. students in a classroom setting, Group Touch distinguishes The challenge of distinguishing among users (i.e., knowing one among users “in the wild” with a mean accuracy of 92.92% user’s touches are different from another’s) is a different challenge than identifying them (i.e., knowing to whom each touch belongs).

Thanks to advances in computer vision and camera technology, in-air hand gestures can be tracked without the need for instrumenting the hands. This allows for a wide variety of interesting and powerful use cases. First, hand gestures that happen naturally during human to human communication can be tracked and interpreted. This has been extensively used and researched, for example for communicating deictic ges- tures to remote participants. Most such solutions rely on communicating such gestures using extensive visual feedback, for example by showing remote participant’s hand, or even his or her full body, to their remote partners.

  • SMAC: a Simplified Model of Attention and Capture in Multi-Device Desk-Centric Environments
    SMAC: A Simplified Model of Attention and Capture in Multi-Device Desk-Centric Environments ZHEN LI, University of Toronto, Canada 2 MICHELLE ANNETT, MishMashMakers, Canada KEN HINCKLEY, Microsoft Research, United States DANIEL WIGDOR, University of Toronto, Canada Prior research has demonstrated that users are increasingly employing multiple devices during daily work. Currently, devices such as keyboards, cell phones, and tablets remain largely unaware of their role within a user’s workflow. As a result, transitioning between devices is tedious, often to the degree that users are discouraged from taking full advantage of the devices they have within reach. This work explores the device ecologies used in desk-centric environments and complies the insights observed into SMAC, a simplified model of attention and capture that emphasizes the role of user-device proxemics, as mediated by hand placement, gaze, and relative body orientation, as well as inter-device proxemics. SMAC illustrates the potential of harnessing the rich, proxemic diversity that exists between users and their device ecologies, while also helping to organize and synthesize the growing body of literature on distributed user interfaces. An evaluation study using SMAC demonstrated that users could easily understand the tenants of user- and inter-device proxemics and found them to be valuable within their workflows. CCS Concepts: • Human-centered computing → Interaction paradigms; Interaction techniques. Additional Key Words and Phrases: Proxemics, user proxemics, inter-device proxemics, cross-device interaction, distributed user interfaces ACM Reference Format: Zhen Li, Michelle Annett, Ken Hinckley, and Daniel Wigdor. 2019.

  • An Improved Modular Framework for Developing Multi-Surface Interaction
    AN IMPROVED MODULAR FRAMEWORK FOR DEVELOPING MULTI-SURFACE INTERACTION A Paper Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the North Dakota State University of Agriculture and Applied Science By Jed Patrick Limke In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Major Program: Software Engineering December 2015 Fargo, North Dakota North Dakota State University Graduate School Title AN IMPROVED MODULAR FRAMEWORK FOR DEVELOPING MULTI-SURFACE INTERACTION By Jed Patrick Limke The Supervisory Committee certifies that this disquisition complies with North Dakota State University’s regulations and meets the accepted standards for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: Dr. Jun Kong Chair Dr. Juan Li Dr. Jin Li Approved: 12/21/2015 Dr. Brian Slator Date Department Chair ABSTRACT Advances in multi-touch capabilities have led to their use in a vast array of devices, but usable interactions that span across devices are less frequently encountered. To address this con- cern, a framework was created for the development of interaction spaces which gave developers the tools to write applications which united tabletop and handheld devices, allowing each device to utilize its inherent interaction style yet still communicate effectively. However, while this framework provided proof that such interactions were possible, it failed to prove itself as easily reusable by subsequent developers. To address this concern, we have created an improved framework to both fulfill the goals of the original framework and confront its shortcomings. Our improved framework features a new intra-component communication system, mobile device independence, configurable user interfaces, and automatic exposure of available interac- tions.

    © Copyright 2018 Martez Edward Mott Improving Touch Accuracy for People with Motor Impairments Martez Edward Mott A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2018 Reading Committee: Jacob O. Wobbrock, Chair Leah Findlater David Hendry Meredith Ringel Morris Program Authorized to Offer Degree: The Information School University of Washington Abstract Improving Touch Accuracy for People with Motor Impairments Martez Mott Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Jacob O. Wobbrock Information School Touch-enabled devices such as smartphones, tablets, and interactive kiosks are some of the most pervasive technologies in the world today. Despite the overwhelming popularity of touch input, it presents significant accessibility challenges for millions of people with motor impairing conditions such as cerebral palsy and Parkinson’s disease, and for people who experience motor difficulties as the result of injury or old age. This dissertation presents an ability-based design approach towards creating touch models that can improve the accuracy of touch input for people with motor impairments. I conducted two exploratory studies to understand the touch behaviors of people with motor impairments when interacting on an interactive tabletop computer and a smartphone. These exploratory studies led to the design of two new ability-based touch models: Smart Touch, a user- specific template matching algorithm designed initially for tabletops; and Cluster Touch, a combined user-specific and user-independent touch model that improves touch accuracy on smartphones. I also conducted an exploration of using convolutional neural networks to model a user’s touch behavior to predict intended target locations.

Andrzeja Boboli 8, 02-525 Warsaw, Poland [email protected] Abstract. Designed interface is a proposed solution for the FP7 CARRE project. The project focuses on the development of medical experts supporting technologies. The most important part of this paper is the evolution of the de- veloped interface, which allows to present and exchange multimedia data to the external devices. The design has been developed to ensure the convenience of usage for both, medical expert and the patient. The paper also presents basic design guidelines, as well as tools that are availa- ble for developers. Overview of components for application development gives an idea of the possibilities and is a good starting point for further exploration of issues associated with the selected multi-touch panel. Keywords: Graphical User Interface, GUI, design, SUR40, multi-touch panel 1 Introduction Graphical User Interface (GUI) plays a key role in interaction between human and device. For a common user the quality of the interface is equivalent to quality of the whole product. He uses the interface without thinking about the complicated applica- tion architecture. Ergonomy of the interface is the main factor that determines wheth- er the application is seen as useful. Designing the interface should be the first thing that is done while creating a program, since it is the most important element for the user.
