A TPad Tablet is a tablet computer with a variable friction touchscreen. It can create the perception of force, shape, and texture on a fingertip, enabling unique and novel haptic interactions on a flat touchscreen surface. We have created an affordable and easy to use variable friction device and have made it available through the open-hardware TPad Tablet Project. We present this device as a potential research platform as well as demonstrate two applications: remote touch communication and rapid haptic sketching.

We describe BitWear, a platform for prototyping small, wireless, interactive devices. BitWear incorporates hardware, wireless connectivity, and a cloud component to enable collections of connected devices. We are using this platform to create, explore, and experiment with a multitude of wearable and deployable physical forms and interactions.

We present a new type of display actuation that is able to control both display geometry and stiffness properties using a filler material and air flow control technique. The display consists of a flat, flexible layer of cells on the surface and chamber filled with particles under it. Display geometries can be changed by transporting an amount of particles between display cells and the particle chamber using pressured air and vacuum to control the air flows. This system also allow for variable stiffness using vacuum technique to harden the particles inside chamber. In this paper, we present the design and control technique of this new type actuator and also possible interaction on a single actuator display. We also propose a low-cost, effective way to control an array of actuators where the air flow line and particle line are arranged in a multiplexed grid configuration.

In recent years, advances in hardware design have lead to significant improvements in the battery life of everyday information appliances. In particular, application processors increasingly include low power "helper" cores dedicated to simpler tasks. Using a custom board design, Guimbretière et al. [2], demonstrated that such helper cores can also be used to execute simple user interface tasks. We revisit their approach by implementing a similar system on an off-the-shelf application processor (TI OMAP4), and demonstrate that, in many cases, the gains reported by Guimbretière et al. [2], can be achieved by simply having the helper core dispatch input events. This new approach can be implemented by merely changing the toolkit infrastructure, thus greatly simplifying deployment

Tapping on the same point twice is a common operation known as double tap, but tapping on distant points in sequence is underutilized. In this poster we explore the potential uses of consecutive distant tap operations, which we call Ta-Tap. As a single-touch operation, it is expected to be particularly useful for single-handed touch screen use. We examined three possible uses of Ta-Tap: simulating multi-touch operations, invoking a virtual scroll wheel, and invoking a pie-menu. We verified the feasibility of Ta-Tap through the experiment.

In this demo paper, we present the realization of a completely aesthetically driven conductive image as a multi-modal music controller. Combining two emerging technologies - rapid prototyping with an off-the-shelf inkjet printer using conductive ink and parametric graphic design, we are able to create an interactive surface that is thin, flat, and flexible. This sensate surface can be conformally wrapped around a simple curved surface, and unlike touch screens, can accommodate complex structures and shapes such as holes on a surface. We present the design and manufacturing flow and discuss the technology behind this multi-modal sensing design. Our work seeks to offer a new dimension of designing sonic interaction with graphic tools, playing and learning music from a visual perspective and performing with expressive physical manipulation.

Recent research has shown that screen-reader users can find information on a website almost twice as fast if they bypass indexes and just navigate the content pages of a collection linearly (in a guided-tour fashion). Yet manually building a guided tour for each existing index requires significant resources from web developers, especially for very large web applications. To address this problem, we introduce WebNexter, a web browser extension that automatically generates guided tours from the indexes present in the page a screen-reader user is currently visiting. WebNexter is manifest in a Google Chrome extension that implements screen-reader accessible, dynamic construction of guided tours from a very large, eCommerce website prototype. Our goal is to develop WebNexter extensions for multiple browsers that will work on any website; this will relieve developers from the burden of designing guided tours while greatly accelerating the screen-reader navigation experience during fact-finding.

Foreign-language comics are potentially an enjoyable way to learn foreign languages. However, the difficulty of reading authentic material makes them inaccessible to novice learners. We present the Foreign Manga Reader, a system that helps readers comprehend foreign-language written materials and learn multiple aspects of the language. Specifically, it generates a sentence-structure visualization to help learners understand the grammar, pronounces dialogs to improve listening comprehension and pronunciation, and translates dialogs, phrases, and words to teach vocabulary. Learners can use the system to match their experience level, giving novices access to dialog-level translations and pronunciations, and more advanced learners with access to information at the level of phrases and individual words. The annotations are automatically generated, and can be used with arbitrary written materials in several languages. A preliminary study suggests that learners find our system useful for understanding and learning from authentic foreign-language material.

Haptic and motion effects have been widely used for virtual reality applications in order to provide a physical feedback from the virtual world. Such feedback was recently studied to improve the user experience in audiovisual entertainment applications. But the creation of haptic and motion effects is a main issue and requires dedicated editing tool. This paper describes a user-friendly authoring tool to create and synchronize such effects with audiovisual content. More precisely we focus on the edition of motion effects. Authoring is simplified thanks to a dedicated graphical user interface, allowing either to import external data or to synthesize effects thanks to a force-feedback device. Another key feature of this editor is the playback function which enables to preview the motion effect. Hence this new tool allows non expert users to create immersive haptic-audiovisual experiences.

AIREAL is a novel haptic technology that delivers effective and expressive tactile sensations in free air, without requiring the user to wear a physical device. Combined with interactive computers graphics, AIREAL enables users to feel virtual 3D objects, experience free air textures and receive haptic feedback on gestures performed in free space. AIREAL relies on air vortex generation directed by an actuated flexible nozzle to provide effective tactile feedback with a 75 degrees field of view, and within an 8.5cm resolution at 1 meter. AIREAL is a scalable, inexpensive and practical free air haptic technology that can be used in a broad range of applications, including gaming, mobile applications, and gesture interaction among many others. This paper reports the details of the AIREAL design and control, experimental evaluations of the device's performance, as well as an exploration of the application space of free air haptic displays. Although we used vortices, we believe that the results reported are generalizable and will inform the design of haptic displays based on alternative principles of free air tactile actuation.
