Running and jogging are popular activities for many visually impaired individuals thanks to the relatively low entry barriers. Research in HCI and beyond has focused primarily on leveraging technology to enable visually impaired people to run independently. However, depending on their residual vision and personal preferences, many chose to run with a sighted guide. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the partnership between visually impaired runners and sighted guides. Using a combination of interaction and thematic analysis on video and interview data from 6 pairs of runners and guides, we unpack the complexity and directionality of three layers of vocal communication (directive, contextual, and recreational) and distinguish between intentional and unintentional corporeal communication. Building on the understanding of the importance of synchrony we also present some exploratory data looking at physiological synchrony between 2 pairs of runners with different level of experience and articulate recommendations for the HCI community.

Association for Computing Machinery, New York, NY, USA, Article 3, 1–15. https://doi.org/10.1145/3689050.3704924 Recently, digital displays such as liquid crystal displays and projectors have enabled high-resolution and high-speed information transmission. However, their artificial appearance can sometimes detract from natural environments and landscapes. In contrast, ambient displays, which transfer information to the entire physical environment, have gained attention for their ability to blend seamlessly into living spaces. This study aims to develop an ambient display that harmonizes with traditional Japanese tatami rooms by proposing an information presentation method using tatami mats. By leveraging the anisotropic properties of tatami, which change their reflective characteristics according to viewing angles and light source positions, various images and animations can be represented. We quantitatively evaluated the color change of tatami using color difference. Additionally, we created both static and dynamic displays as information presentation methods using tatami. https://doi.org/10.1145/3689050.3704924…

"ELEGNT: Expressive and Functional Movement Design for Non-anthropomorphic Robot." arXiv preprint arXiv:2501.12493 (2025). https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.12493 Nonverbal behaviors such as posture, gestures, and gaze are essential for conveying internal states, both consciously and unconsciously, in human interaction. For robots to interact more naturally with humans, robot movement design should likewise integrate expressive qualities—such as intention, attention, and emotions—alongside traditional functional considerations like task fulfillment, spatial constraints, and time efficiency. In this paper, we present the design and prototyping of a lamp-like robot that explores the interplay between functional and expressive objectives in movement design. Using a research-through-design methodology, we document the hardware design process, define expressive movement primitives, and outline a set of interaction scenario storyboards. We propose a framework that incorporates both functional and expressive utilities during movement generation, and implement the robot behavior sequences in different function- and social-oriented tasks. Through a user study comparing expression-driven versus function-driven movements across six task scenarios, our findings indicate that expression-driven movements significantly enhance user engagement and perceived robot qualities. This effect is especially pronounced in social-oriented tasks.…

We compared the body movements of five virtual reality (VR) avatar representations in a user study (N=53) to ascertain how well these representations could convey body motions associated with different emotions: one head-and-hands representation using only tracking data, one upper-body representation using inverse kinematics (IK), and three full-body representations using IK, motioncapture, and the state-of-the-art deep-learning model AGRoL. Participants’ emotion detection accuracies were similar for the IK and AGRoL representations, highest for the full-body motion-capture representation and lowest for the head-and-hands representation. Our findings suggest that from the perspective of emotion expressivity, connected upper-body parts that provide visual continuity improve clarity, and that current techniques for algorithmically animating the lower-body are ineffective. In particular, the deep-learning technique studied did not produce more expressive results, suggesting the need for training data specifically made for social VR applications. https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10765392…

We introduce “Whirling Interface,” a selection method for XR displays using bare-hand motion matching gestures as an input technique. We extend the motion matching input method, by introducing different input states to provide visual feedback and guidance to the users. Using the wrist joint as the primary input modality, our technique reduces user fatigue and improves performance while selecting small and distant targets. In a study with 16 participants, we compared the whirling interface with a standard ray casting method using hand gestures. The results demonstrate that the Whirling Interface consistently achieves high success rates, especially for distant targets, averaging 95.58% with a completion time of 5.58 seconds. Notably, it requires a smaller camera sensing field of view of only 21.45° horizontally and 24.7° vertically. Participants reported lower workloads on distant conditions and expressed a higher preference for the Whirling Interface in general. These findings suggest that the Whirling Interface could be a useful alternative input method for XR displays with a small camera sensing FOV or when interacting with small targets. https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/10765156…

This paper investigates how a Mixed Reality Agent’s (MiRA) ability to acknowledge a user’s physiological state affects perceptions such as empathy, social connectedness, presence, and trust. In a within-subject study with 24 subjects, we varied the companion agent’s awareness during a mixed-reality first-person shooting game. Three agents provided feedback based on the users’ physiological states: (1) No Awareness Agent (NAA), which did not acknowledge the user’s physiological state; (2) Random Awareness Agent (RAA), offering feedback with varying accuracy; and (3) Accurate Awareness Agent (AAA), which provided consistently accurate feedback. Subjects reported higher scores on perceived empathy, social connectedness, presence, and trust with AAA compared to RAA and NAA. Interestingly, despite exceeding NAA in perception scores, RAA was the least favored as a companion. The findings and implications for the design of MiRA interfaces are discussed, along with the limitations of the study and directions for future work. https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10765390…

In this scoping review of 121 articles from the ACM Digital Library, we synthesize the diverse perspectives on empathy and scrutinize its current conceptualization and operationalization. In particular, we examine the various interpretations and definitions of empathy, its applications, and the methodologies, findings, and trends in the field. Our analysis reveals a lack of consensus on the definitions and theoretical underpinnings of empathy, with interpretations ranging from understanding the experiences of others to an affective response to the other's situation. We observed that despite the variety of methods used to gauge empathy, the predominant approach remains self-assessed instruments, highlighting the lack of novel and rigorously established and validated measures and methods to capture the multifaceted manifestations of empathy. Furthermore, our analysis shows that previous studies have used a variety of approaches to elicit empathy, such as experiential methods and situational awareness. These approaches have demonstrated that shared stressful experiences promote community support and relief, while situational awareness promotes empathy through increased helping behavior. Finally, we discuss a) the potential and drawbacks of leveraging empathy to shape interactions and guide design practices, b) the need to find a balance between the collective focus of empathy and the (existing and dominant) focus on the individual, and c) the careful testing of empathic designs and technologies with real-world applications. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3687052…

With the advancement of acoustically transparent personal audio devices (e.g. headphones, open-ear audio frames), Auditory Augmented Reality (AAR), and real-time audio processing, it is feasible to preserve user situational awareness and relevant information whilst diminishing the perception of the noise. Through an online survey (n=124), this research explored users’ attitudes and preferred AAR strategy (keep the noise, make the noise more pleasant, obscure the noise, reduce the noise, remove the noise, and replace the noise) toward different types of noises from a range of categories (living beings, mechanical, and environmental) and varying degrees of relevance. It was discovered that respondents’ degrees of annoyance varied according to the kind of noise and its relevance to them. Additionally, respondents had a strong tendency to reduce irrelevant noise and retain more relevant noise. Based on our findings, we discuss how AAR can assist users in coping with noise whilst retaining relevant information through selectively suppressing or altering the noise, as appropriate. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3678957.3685750…

To address this, we developed SoundHapticVR, a head-based haptic system that converts audio signals into haptic feedback using multi-channel acoustic haptic actuators. We evaluated SoundHapticVR through three studies: determining the maximum tactile frequency threshold on different head regions for DHH users, identifying the ideal number and arrangement of transducers for sound localization, and assessing participants’ ability to differentiate sound sources with haptic patterns. Findings indicate that tactile perception thresholds vary across head regions, necessitating consistent frequency equalization. Adding a front transducer significantly improved sound localization, and participants could correlate distinct haptic patterns with specific objects. Overall, this system has the potential to make VR applications more accessible to DHH users. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3663548.3675639…

One of the sensing seats is used by the person on the wheelchair, whereas the other is used as a remote control by a second person. We explore the use of the wheelchair using different control paradigms (independent, remote, and shared) from both the wheelchair and the remote control seat with 5 dyads and 1 triad of participants, including wheelchair users and non.

Mixed Reality allows us to integrate virtual and physical content into users' environments seamlessly. Yet, how this fusion affects perceptual and cognitive resources and our ability to find virtual or physical objects remains uncertain. Displaying virtual and physical information simultaneously might lead to divided attention and increased visual complexity, impacting users' visual processing, performance, and workload. In a visual search task, we asked participants to locate virtual and physical objects in Augmented Reality and Augmented Virtuality to understand the effects on performance. We evaluated search efficiency and attention allocation for virtual and physical objects using event-related potentials, fixation and saccade metrics, and behavioral measures. We found that users were more efficient in identifying objects in Augmented Virtuality, while virtual objects gained saliency in Augmented Virtuality. This suggests that visual fidelity might increase the perceptual load of the scene. Reduced amplitude in distractor positivity ERP, and fixation patterns supported improved distractor suppression and search efficiency in Augmented Virtuality. We discuss design implications for mixed reality adaptive systems based on physiological inputs for interaction. https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10679197…

Therefore, how to improve the quality of electroencephalogram (EEG) signals for MI in VR has emerged as a critical issue. People can perform MI more easily when they visualize the hand used for visual guidance as their own, and the Rubber Hand Illusion (RHI) can increase people's ownership of the prosthetic hand. We proposed to induce RHI in VR to enhance participants' MI ability and designed five methods of inducing RHI, namely active movement, haptic stimulation, passive movement, active movement mixed with haptic stimulation, and passive movement mixed with haptic stimulation, respectively. We constructed a first-person training scenario to train participants' MI ability through the five induction methods. The experimental results showed that through the training, the participants' feeling of ownership of the virtual hand in VR was enhanced, and the MI ability was improved. Among them, the method of mixing active movement and tactile stimulation proved to have a good effect on enhancing MI. Finally, we developed a BCI system in VR utilizing the above training method, and the performance of the participants improved after the training. This also suggests that our proposed method is promising for future application in BCI rehabilitation systems. https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10669780…

Our results provide insights into the filters' effectiveness and factors that affect it, such as the amount of noise caused by locomotion and differences in compensatory eye movements, and demonstrate that filters with saccade detection prove most useful for on-the-go settings.

Association for Computing Machinery, New York, NY, USA, Article 106, 1–13. https://doi.org/10.1145/3654777.3676358 Procedural content generation (PCG), the process of algorithmically creating game components instead of manually, has been a common tool of game development for decades. Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) enable the generation of game behaviors based on player input at runtime. Such code generation brings with it the possibility of entirely new gameplay interactions that may be difficult to integrate with typical game development workflows. We explore these implications through GROMIT, a novel LLM-based runtime behavior generation system for Unity. When triggered by a player action, GROMIT generates a relevant behavior which is compiled without developer intervention and incorporated into the game. We create three demonstration scenarios with GROMIT to investigate how such a technology might be used in game development. In a system evaluation we find that our implementation is able to produce behaviors that result in significant downstream impacts to gameplay. We then conduct an interview study with n=13 game developers using GROMIT as a probe to elicit their current opinion on runtime behavior generation tools, and enumerate the specific themes curtailing the wider use of such tools. We find that the main themes of concern are quality considerations, community expectations, and fit with developer workflows, and that several of the subthemes are unique to runtime behavior generation specifically. We outline a future work agenda to address these concerns, including the need for additional guardrail systems for behavior generation. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3654777.3676358…

「あとで再生する」 「あとで再生する」 リスト 気に入り 気に入ったNavigating in a natural way in augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) spaces is a large challenge. To this end, we present ArmSwingVR, a locomotion solution for AR/VR spaces that preserves immersion, while being low profile compared to current solutions, particularly walking-in-place (WIP) methods. The user simply needs to swing their arms naturally to navigate in the direction where the arms are swung, without any feet or head movement. The benefits of ArmSwingVR are that arm swinging feels natural for bipedal organisms second only to leg movement, no additional peripherals or sensors are required, it is less obtrusive to swing our arms as opposed to WIP methods, and requires less energy allowing prolong uses for AR/VR. A conducted user study found that our method does not sacrifice immersion while also being more low profile and less energy consumption compared to WIP. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3152832.3152864…

「あとで再生する」 「あとで再生する」 リスト 気に入り 気に入ったAs the population ages, many will acquire visual impairments. To improve design for these users, it is essential to build awareness of their perspective during everyday routines, especially for design students. Although several visual impairment simulation toolkits exist in both academia and as commercial products, analog, and static visual impairment simulation tools do not simulate effects concerning the user’s eye movements. Meanwhile, VR and video see-through-based AR simulation methods are constrained by smaller fields of view when compared with the natural human visual field and also suffer from vergence-accommodation conflict (VAC) which correlates with visual fatigue, headache, and dizziness. In this paper, we enable an on-the-go, VAC-free, visually impaired experience by leveraging our optical see-through glasses. The FOV of our glasses is approximately 160 degrees for horizontal and 140 degrees for vertical, and participants can experience both losses of central vision and loss of peripheral vision at different severities. Our evaluation (n =14) indicates that the glasses can significantly and effectively reduce visual acuity and visual field without causing typical motion sickness symptoms such as headaches and or visual fatigue. Questionnaires and qualitative feedback also showed how the glasses helped to increase participants’ awareness of visual impairment. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3526113.3545687…

Emolleia is an open wearable kinetic display in form of three 3D printed flowers that can dynamically open and close at different speeds. With our open-source platform, users can define their own animated motions. In this paper, we described the prototype design, hardware considerations, and user surveys (n=50) to evaluate the expressiveness of 8 pre-defined animated motions of Emolleia. Our initial results showed animated motions are feasible to communicate different emotional feelings especially at the valence and arousal dimensions. Based on the findings, we mapped eight pre-defined animated motions to the reported, user-perceived valence, arousal and dominance and discussed possible directions for future work. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3490149.3505581…

「あとで再生する」 「あとで再生する」 リスト 気に入り 気に入ったRobotic avatars can help disabled people extend their reach in interacting with the world. Technological advances make it possible for individuals to embody multiple avatars simultaneously. However, existing studies have been limited to laboratory conditions and did not involve disabled participants. In this paper, we present a real-world implementation of a parallel control system allowing disabled workers in a café to embody multiple robotic avatars at the same time to carry out different tasks. Our data corpus comprises semi-structured interviews with workers, customer surveys, and videos of café operations. Results indicate that the system increases workers’ agency, enabling them to better manage customer journeys. Parallel embodiment and transitions between avatars create multiple interaction loops where the links between disabled workers and customers remain consistent, but the intermediary avatar changes. Based on our observations, we theorize that disabled individuals possess specific competencies that increase their ability to manage multiple avatar bodies. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3544548.3581124…

「あとで再生する」 「あとで再生する」 リスト 気に入り 気に入ったWheelchair dance is an important form of disability art that is still subject to significant levels of ableism and art exclusion. Wheelchair dancers face challenges finding teachers and choreographers who can accommodate their needs, documenting and sharing choreographies that suit their body shapes and their assistive technologies. In turn, this hinders their ability to share creative expressions. Accessible resources and communication tools could help address these challenges. The goal of this research is the development of a visualization system grounded on Laban Movement Analysis (LMA) that notates movement quality while opening new horizons on perceptions of disabled bodies and the artistic legitimacy of wheelchair dance. The system uses video to identify the body landmarks of the dancer and wheelchair and extracts key features to create visualizations of expressive qualities from LMA basic effort. The current evaluation includes a pilot study with the general public and an online questionnaire targeting professionals to gain feedback supporting practical implementation and real-world deployment. Results from the general public evaluation showed that the visualization was effective in conveying basic effort movement qualities even to a novice audience. Expert consulted via questionnaire stated that the tool could be employed for reflective evaluation, as well as performance augmentation. The LMA visualization tool can support the artistic legitimization of wheelchair dancing through education, communication, performance, and documentation. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3597628…

「あとで再生する」 「あとで再生する」 リスト 気に入り 気に入ったIn this paper, we propose a method for utilizing musical artifacts and physiological data as a means for creating a new form of live music experience that is rooted in the physiology of the performers and audience members. By utilizing physiological data (namely Electrodermal Activity (EDA) and Heart Rate Variability (HRV)) and applying this data to musical artifacts including a robotic koto (a traditional 13-string Japanese instrument fitted with solenoids and linear actuators), a Eurorack synthesizer, and Max/MSP software, we aim to develop a new form of semi-improvisational and significantly indeterminate performance practice. It has since evolved into a multi-modal methodology which honors improvisational performance practices and utilizes physiological data which offers both performers and audiences an ever-changing and intimate experience. In our first exploratory phase, we focused on the development of a means for controlling a bespoke robotic koto in conjunction with a Eurorack synthesizer system and Max/MSP software for controlling the incoming data. We integrated a reliance on physiological data to infuse a more directly human elements into this artifact system. This allows a significant portion of the decision-making to be directly controlled by the incoming physiological data in real-time, thereby affording a sense of performativity within this non-living system. Our aim is to continue the development of this method to strike a novel balance between intentionality and impromptu performative results. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3623509.3633356…

Research in HCI and beyond has focused primarily on leveraging technology to enable visually impaired people to run independently. However, depending on their residual vision and personal preferences, many chose to run with a sighted guide. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the partnership between visually impaired runners and sighted guides. Using a combination of interaction and thematic analysis on video and interview data from 6 pairs of runners and guides, we unpack the complexity and directionality of three layers of vocal communication (directive, contextual, and recreational) and distinguish between intentional and unintentional corporeal communication. Building on the understanding of the importance of synchrony we also present some exploratory data looking at physiological synchrony between 2 pairs of runners with different level of experience and articulate recommendations for the HCI community. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3613904.3642388…

Ultimately, our results indicate that our algorithm has intrinsic qualities comparable to the user score and measures well to the statistical correlation methods. It takes the temporal offset between the input signals into account with the added benefit of being an algorithm which can be adapted to run in real-time will less computational intensity than traditional time series correlation methods. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3544549.3585709…

Despite advancements in sensing, haptics on smartwatches is still restricted to tactile feedback (e.g., vibration). Most smartwatch-sized actuators cannot render strong force-feedback. Simultaneously, electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) promises compact force-feedback but, to actuate fingers requires users to wear many electrodes on their forearms. While forearm electrodes provide good accuracy, they detract EMS from being a practical force-feedback interface. To address this, we propose moving the electrodes to the wrist—conveniently packing them in the backside of a smartwatch. In our first study, we found that by cross-sectionally stimulating the wrist in 1,728 trials, we can actuate thumb extension, index extension & flexion, middle flexion, pinky flexion, and wrist flexion. Following, we engineered a compact EMS that integrates directly into a smartwatch’s wristband (with a custom stimulator, electrodes, demultiplexers, and communication). In our second study, we found that participants could calibrate our device by themselves Math 1 faster than with conventional EMS. Furthermore, all participants preferred the experience of this device, especially for its social acceptability & practicality. We believe that our approach opens new applications for smartwatch-based interactions, such as haptic assistance during everyday tasks. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3654777.3676373…

Informed by participatory sessions, Wheeler enables blind users to navigate up to three hierarchical levels in an app independently using three wheels instead of navigating just one level at a time using a keyboard. The three wheels also offer versatility, allowing users to repurpose them for other tasks, such as 2D cursor manipulation. A study with 12 blind users indicates a significant reduction (40%) in navigation time compared to using a keyboard. Further, a diary study with our blind co-author highlights Wheeler’s additional benefits, such as accessing UI elements with partial metadata and facilitating mixed-ability collaboration. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3654777.3676396…

Leveraging this feature, we engineered an exoskeleton, called DexteriSync, that can dynamically adjust the user’s finger dexterity and induce different thermal perceptions by modulating finger skin temperature. This exoskeleton comprises flexible silicone-copper tube segments, 3D-printed finger sockets, a 3D-printed palm base, a pump system, and a water temperature control with a storage unit. By realising an embodied experience of compromised dexterity, DexteriSync can help product designers understand the lived experience of compromised hand dexterity, such as that of the elderly and/or neurodivergent users, when designing daily necessities for them. We validated DexteriSync via a technical evaluation and two user studies, demonstrating that it can change skin temperature, dexterity, and thermal perception. An exploratory session with design students and an autistic compromised dexterity individual, demonstrated the exoskeleton provided a more realistic experience compared to video education, and allowed them to gain higher confidence in their designs. The results advocated for the efficacy of experiencing embodied compromised finger dexterity, which can promote an understanding of the related physical challenges and lead to a more persuasive design for assistive tools. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3654777.3676422…

In addition, we developed head-worn demonstration prototypes to practically explore the concept of active VNC with selected scenarios in a user study.

Additionally, by interpolating with 3 electrodes a direction can be conveyed with a similar mean error of 22.54° (σ = 43.57°). We evaluated our concept of directional electrotactile feedback for cyclists in an outdoor study, in which 98.8% of all junctions were taken correctly by eight study participants.

In a user study with 30 participants, we assessed how UMH impacts the perceived material state and temperature of virtual objects. We also analyzed EEG data to understand how participants integrate UMH information physiologically. Our results reveal that UMH significantly enhances the perceived congruency of virtual objects, particularly for solid objects, reducing the feeling of mismatch between visual and tactile feedback. Additionally, UMH consistently increases the perceived temperature of virtual objects.

「あとで再生する」 「あとで再生する」 リスト 気に入り 気に入ったWe deep dive today into the ISWC 2024 best paper award. Tactile feedback mechanisms enhance the user experience of modern wearables by stimulating the sense of touch and enabling intuitive interactions. Electro-tactile stimulation-based tactile interfaces stand out due to their compact form factor and ability to deliver localized tactile sensations. Integrating force sensing with electro-tactile stimulation creates more responsive bidirectional systems that are beneficial in applications requiring precise control and feedback. However, current research often relies on separate sensors for force sensing, increasing system complexity and raising challenges in system scalability. We propose a novel approach that utilizes 3D-printed modified surfaces as the electro-tactile electrode interface to sense applied force and deliver feedback simultaneously without additional sensors. This method simplifies the system, maintains flexibility, and leverages the rapid prototyping capabilities of 3D printing. The functionality of this approach is validated through a user study (N=10), and two practical applications are proposed, both incorporating simultaneous sensing and tactile feedback. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3675095.3676612…

Self-recording eating behaviors is a step towards a healthy lifestyle recommended by many health professionals. However, the current practice of manually recording eating activities using paper records or smartphone apps is often unsustainable and inaccurate. Smart glasses have emerged as a promising wearable form factor for tracking eating behaviors, but existing systems primarily identify when eating occurs without capturing details of the eating activities (E.g., what is being eaten). In this paper, we present EchoGuide, an application and system pipeline that leverages low-power active acoustic sensing to guide head-mounted cameras to capture egocentric videos, enabling efficient and detailed analysis of eating activities. By combining active acoustic sensing for eating detection with video captioning models and large-scale language models for retrieval augmentation, EchoGuide intelligently clips and analyzes videos to create concise, relevant activity records on eating. We evaluated EchoGuide with 9 participants in naturalistic settings involving eating activities, demonstrating high-quality summarization and significant reductions in video data needed, paving the way for practical, scalable eating activity tracking. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3675095.3676611…

The store map and purchase records are cross-referenced to identify a list of visited shelves, providing anchors to localize the relative trajectories in a store through continuous and discrete optimization. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our system in five diverse environments. The system, if successful, would produce accurate customer movement data, essential for a broad range of retail applications including customer behavior analysis and in-store navigation. https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3675095.3676623…

Applying customized epidermal electronics closely onto the human skin offers the potential for biometric sensing and unique, always-available on-skin interactions. However, iterating designs of an on-skin interface from schematics to physical circuit wiring can be time-consuming, even with tiny modifications; it is also challenging to preserve skin wearability after repeated alteration. We present SkinLink, a reconfigurable on-skin fabrication approach that allows users to intuitively explore and experiment with the circuitry adjustment on the body. We demonstrate SkinLink with a customized on-skin prototyping toolkit comprising tiny distributed circuit modules and a variety of streamlined trace modules that adapt to diverse body surfaces. To evaluate SkinLink's performance, we conducted a 14-participant usability study to compare and contrast the workflows with a benchmark on-skin construction toolkit. Four case studies targeting a film makeup artist, two beauty makeup artists, and a wearable computing designer further demonstrate different application scenarios and usages. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3596241…

「あとで再生する」 「あとで再生する」 リスト 気に入り 気に入ったToday we deep dive into one publication that received a UbiComp 2024 distinguished paper awards. We present MoCaPose, a novel wearable motion capturing (MoCap) approach to continuously track the wearer's upper body's dynamic poses through multi-channel capacitive sensing integrated in fashionable, loose-fitting jackets. Unlike conventional wearable IMU MoCap based on inverse dynamics, MoCaPose decouples the sensor position from the pose system. MoCaPose uses a deep regressor to continuously predict the 3D upper body joints coordinates from 16-channel textile capacitive sensors, unbound by specific applications. The concept is implemented through two prototyping iterations to first solve the technical challenges, then establish the textile integration through fashion-technology co-design towards a design-centric smart garment. A 38-hour dataset of synchronized video and capacitive data from 21 participants was recorded for validation. The motion tracking result was validated on multiple levels from statistics (R2 ~ 0.91) and motion tracking metrics (MP JPE ~ 86mm) to the usability in pose and motion recognition (0.9 F1 for 10-class classification with unsupervised class discovery). The design guidelines impose few technical constraints, allowing the wearable system to be design-centric and usecase-specific. Overall, MoCaPose demonstrates that textile-based capacitive sensing with its unique advantages, can be a promising alternative for wearable motion tracking and other relevant wearable motion recognition applications. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3580883…
