Abstract

This paper describes a new menu technique called MultiTouch Menu, that is especially well suited for multitouch interactive surfaces. In contrast with traditional menu techniques, the MultiTouch menu makes the most of the new capabilities provided by these new interactive devices: instead of only using two degrees of freedom, it makes it possible to use the five fingers of the hand simultaneously for interacting with applications. By providing several interesting properties, such as eyes-free selection or the ability to navigate seamlessly in the hierarchy of commands, MultiTouch menus make it possible to enrich and facilitate interaction on multitouch devices.
