ABSTRACT
We present CookieFlavors, a TUI prototyping tool that provides a set of physical input primitives realized by coin-size Bluetooth wireless sensors named Cookie. Developers can attach CookieFlavors on any physical objects and examine the suitability of tangible input in a TUI prototype phase. We have built a map viewer application and projected it in an experimental room that contains various physical objects and several CookieFlavors. We asked the focus group to manipulate the map viewer application by augmenting CookieFlavors into physical objects. In this paper we present the interesting result of their perception and activities regarding this intuitive TUI, CookieFlavors.

Mixed interaction space: designing for camera based interaction with mobile devices
CHI EA '05: CHI '05 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsIn mobile devices, such as mobile phones and PDAs, an integrated camera can be used to interact with the device in new ways. In this paper we introduce the term mixed interaction space and argue that the possibility of using mixed interaction spaces is ...
Rapidly Prototyping Marker Based Tangible User Interfaces
VMR '09: Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Virtual and Mixed Reality: Held as Part of HCI International 2009Tangible user interfaces (TUIs) can create engaging and useful interactive systems. However, along with the power of these interfaces comes challenges; they are often so specialized and novel that building a TUI system involves working at a low level ...
