ABSTRACT
In this note, we present SixthSense, a wearable gestural interface that augments the physical world around us with digital information and lets us use natural hand gestures to interact with that information. By using a tiny projector and a camera coupled in a pendant like mobile wearable device, SixthSense sees what the user sees and visually augments surfaces, walls or physical objects the user is interacting with; turning them into just-in-time information interfaces. SixthSense attempts to free information from its confines by seamlessly integrating it with the physical world.

WUW - wear Ur world: a wearable gestural interface
CHI EA '09: CHI '09 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsInformation is traditionally confined to paper or digitally to a screen. In this paper, we introduce WUW, a wearable gestural interface, which attempts to bring information out into the tangible world. By using a tiny projector and a camera mounted on a ...
"Megereality": Leveraging Physical Affordances for Multi-Device Gestural Interaction in Augmented Reality
CHI EA '20: Extended Abstracts of the 2020 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsWe present a novel gestural interaction strategy for multi-device interactions in augmented reality (AR), in which we leverage existing physical affordances of everyday products and spaces for intuitive interactions in AR. To explore this concept, we ...
Assessing the effectiveness of direct gesture interaction for a safety critical maritime application
Multi-touch interaction, in particular multi-touch gesture interaction, is widely believed to give a more natural interaction style. We investigated the utility of multi-touch interaction in the safety critical domain of maritime dynamic positioning (DP)...
