    Haptic and AR interface for paratrooper coordination

    Jinsil Hwaryoung Seo

    Research in multi-touch interaction has typically been focused on direct spatial manipulation; techniques have been create to result in the most intuitive mapping between the movement of the hand and the resultant change in the virtual object. However

    as we attempt to design for more complex operations

    the expectation of spatial manipulation becomes infeasible.\nWe introduce Multi-tap Sliders for operation in what we call abstract parametric spaces that do not have an obvious literal spatial representation

    such as exposure

    brightness

    contrast and saturation for image editing. This new widget design promotes multi-touch interaction for prolonged use in\nscenarios that require adjustment of multiple parameters as part of an operation. The multi-tap sliders encourage the user to keep her visual focus on the target

    instead of the requiring\nto look back at the interface.

    Multi-Tap Sliders: Advancing Touch Interaction for Parameter Adjustment

    Developed a sketch interface for a facilitated learning experience that utilizes a robust framework and a sketch recognizer to provide feedback of the users' work and accuracy in solving the problem.
