Abstract

In this demo we present a tangible UI concept for controlling the color of lighting. The interaction is performed by placing different color glass objects to a bowl of water. The system demonstrates an aesthetic design for a tangible UI, and aims to provide the user an experience-rich haptic UI. The demo aims towards decorative and calm UIs for home control systems. It seeks to hide conventional technology and switches, and is part of the ubiquitous computing design vision for calm computing.

A design space for ephemeral user interfaces
TEI '13: Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Tangible, Embedded and Embodied Interaction

In this paper, we present the novel concept of ephemeral user interfaces. Ephemeral user interfaces contain at least one user interface (UI) element that is intentionally created to last for a limited time only and typically incorporate materials that ...
Requesting Pervasive Services by Touching RFID Tags

As the vision of pervasive computing gradually becomes a reality, we are seeing an increasing number of services in our everyday environments. We don't just access them at desktop computers but everywhere our activities lead us-using mobile terminals ...
Tangible User Interfaces: Technology You Can Touch

To make computer and communications technology easier to work with, vendors are beginning to release products utilizing tangible user interfaces, in which users interact with physical objects that both represent and control digital information.
