What is Skinput
Giving input through skin. Was developed by Chris Harrison
(Carnegie Mellon University), Microsoft Research.
Skin Interface
Principle of Skinput
It "listens" to the vibrations in your body.
“Skinput” also responds to various hand gestures.
The arm is an instrument.
How it works
It needs Bluetooth connection. It uses a microchip-sized Pico
projector to display menu. An acoustic detector to detect sound
vibrations.
Skin Interface
The three input location sets evaluated in the study.
Waves Generated
Waves Generated
Wearable Arm Bands
Two arrays of five sensing elements.
Bone conduction microphones.
Microphones Placed near: Humerus Radius
Wearable Arm Bands
Higher Accuracy
BMI Effects
High BMI( Body Mass Index) is correlated with decreased accuracies.
No direct relation with gender of the participant.
Advantages
No need to interact with the gadget directly.
Don’t have to worry about keypad. People with larger fingers get trouble
in navigating tiny buttons and keyboards on mobile phones. With Skinput that problem disappears.
Conclusion
Since we cannot simply make buttons and screens larger it will be an alternative approach
Skin put's are not available yet, but could be in the next few years.
