Interaction in mid-air can be fatiguing. A model-based method to quantify cumulative subjective fatigue for such interaction was recently introduced in HCI research. This model separates muscle units into three states: active (Ma) fatigued (Mf) or...

Quantifying cumulative arm muscle fatigue is a critical factor in understanding, evaluating, and optimizing user experience during prolonged mid-air interaction. A reasonably accurate estimation of fatigue requires an estimate of an individual's...

Proceedings of the ACM Symposium on Spatial User Interaction, October 4-5, 2014, Honolulu, HI, USA

Understanding the intent behind human gestures is a critical problem in the design of gestural interactions. A common method to observe and understand how users express gestures is to use elicitation studies. However, these studies requires...

PuppetX: A Framework for Gestural Interactions With User Constructed Playthings

Saikat Gupta, Sujin Jang, and Karthik Ramani
Proceedings of the ACM Conference on Advanced Visual Interfaces, May 27-30, Como, Italy. pp. 73-80, 2014

We present PuppetX, a framework for both constructing playthings and playing with them using spatial body and hand gestures. This framework allows users to construct various playthings similar to puppets with modular components representing basic...
