Motion and Context Sensing Techniques for Pen Computing
Motion and Context Sensing Techniques for Pen Computing Ken Hinckley1, Xiang ‘Anthony’ Chen1,2, and Hrvoje Benko1 * Microsoft Research, Redmond, WA, USA1 and Carnegie Mellon University Dept. of Computer Science2 ABSTRACT We explore techniques for a slender and untethered stylus prototype enhanced with a full suite of inertial sensors (three-axis accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer). We present a taxonomy of enhanced stylus input techniques and consider a number of novel possibilities that combine motion sensors with pen stroke and touchscreen inputs on a pen + touch slate. These Fig. 1 Our wireless prototype has accelerometer, gyro, and inertial sensors enable motion-gesture inputs, as well sensing the magnetometer sensors in a ~19 cm Χ 11.5 mm diameter stylus. context of how the user is holding or using the stylus, even when Our system employs a custom pen augmented with inertial the pen is not in contact with the tablet screen. Our initial results sensors (accelerometer, gyro, and magnetometer, each a 3-axis suggest that sensor-enhanced stylus input offers a potentially rich sensor, for nine total sensing dimensions) as well as a low-power modality to augment interaction with slate computers. radio.

KSPC (Keystrokes Per Character) As a Characteristic of Text Entry Techniques
KSPC (Keystrokes per Character) as a Characteristic of Text Entry Techniques I. Scott MacKenzie Dept. of Computer Science York University Toronto, Ontario, Canada M3J 1P3 +1 416 736 2100 WQEGOIR^MI$EGQSVK Abstract. KSPC is the number of keystrokes, on average, to generate each character of text in a given language using a given text entry technique. We systematically describe the calculation of KSPC and provide examples across a variety of text entry techniques. Values for English range from about 10 for methods using only cursor keys and a SELECT key to about 0.5 for word prediction techniques. It is demonstrated that KSPC is useful for a priori analyses, thereby supporting the characterisation and comparison of text entry methods before labour-intensive implementations and evaluations. 1 Introduction An important research area in mobile computing is the development of efficient means of text entry. Interest is fueled by trends such as text messaging on mobile phones, two-way paging, and mobile web and email access. Coincident with this is the continued call in HCI for methods and models to make systems design tractable at the design and analysis stage [5]. This paper addresses these two themes. We propose a measure to characterise text entry techniques. It is calculated a priori, using a language model and a keystroke-level description of the technique. The measure is used to characterise and compare methods at the design stage, thus facilitating analyses prior to labour-intensive implementations and evaluations. 2 Keystrokes per Character (KSPC) KSPC is an acronym for keystrokes per character. It is the number of keystrokes required, on average, to generate a character of text for a given text entry technique in a given language.

Off-The-Shelf Stylus: Using XR Devices for Handwriting and Sketching on Physically Aligned Virtual Surfaces
TECHNOLOGY AND CODE published: 04 June 2021 doi: 10.3389/frvir.2021.684498 Off-The-Shelf Stylus: Using XR Devices for Handwriting and Sketching on Physically Aligned Virtual Surfaces Florian Kern*, Peter Kullmann, Elisabeth Ganal, Kristof Korwisi, René Stingl, Florian Niebling and Marc Erich Latoschik Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) Group, Informatik, University of Würzburg, Würzburg, Germany This article introduces the Off-The-Shelf Stylus (OTSS), a framework for 2D interaction (in 3D) as well as for handwriting and sketching with digital pen, ink, and paper on physically aligned virtual surfaces in Virtual, Augmented, and Mixed Reality (VR, AR, MR: XR for short). OTSS supports self-made XR styluses based on consumer-grade six-degrees-of-freedom XR controllers and commercially available styluses. The framework provides separate modules for three basic but vital features: 1) The stylus module provides stylus construction and calibration features. 2) The surface module provides surface calibration and visual feedback features for virtual-physical 2D surface alignment using our so-called 3ViSuAl procedure, and Edited by: surface interaction features. 3) The evaluation suite provides a comprehensive test bed Daniel Zielasko, combining technical measurements for precision, accuracy, and latency with extensive University of Trier, Germany usability evaluations including handwriting and sketching tasks based on established Reviewed by: visuomotor, graphomotor, and handwriting research.

The consumer VR market has become a large part of the VR world and is growing at a rapid pace. In spite of this growth, there is no standard controller for VR. This study evaluated three different controllers: a gamepad, the Leap Motion, and a touchpad as means of interacting with a virtual environment (VE). There were 23 participants that performed a matching task while wearing a Samsung Gear VR mobile based VR headset.

Displaying Images on the SMART Sympodium
Displaying Images on the SMART Sympodium Anything you can display on your computer monitor will be projected onto the SMART Sympodium when you are connected to the system. For example, you could display: Word Documents Images Pages on the Internet PowerPoint Presentations Statistical or Design Programs Touching the SMART Sympodium screen with the pen stylus is equivalent to clicking on your computer screen using your mouse. Tap once on the Sympodium for a single mouse click; tap twice on the Sympodium for a double click. Drawing on the Sympodium Screen Use the stylus attached to the SMART Sympodium to draw on the screen. Do not write on the SMART Sympodium screen with dry-erase markers or pens. Note that the stylus pen color is changeable. It will write in the color you select by pen color selection buttons located at the top of the Sympodium screen. Also note that the pen and mouse are interchangeable. However if you lay the pen on the screen,the mouse will not function properly. Always rest the pen near the inside bottom of the screen when not in use. Note the buttons at the bottom of the Sympodium panel. These are shortcuts to some of the Sympodium tools. By default, the Floating Tools are not active. To activate them, click on the Start Menu and then "SMART Board Tools". The toolbar will fade in on the left side of the screen. To customize the appearance of your tools: Click on the "Gear" icon at the bottom of the Floating Toolbar. Drag the desired tool onto the bar; likewise, drag the undesired tool away.
