RayMatic: ambient meter display with facial expression and gesture

Published:07 May 2011Publication History

ABSTRACT

We present an experimental thermostat display that moves beyond a conventional, number-based interface. It explores an approach to engaging and emotional human-computer interaction through facial expression and gesture. Using sensors and touch technology, an ordinary picture frame becomes an interactive meter and conveys environmental information as an ambient display.
