n TECHNICAL PRESENTATIONS | BALLROOM E
DIMENSIONS OF SENSORY INTERACTION
SESSION CHAIR: Shwetak Patel, University of Washington, USA
PAPER | ZeroTouch: An Optical Multi-Touch and
Free-Air Interaction Architecture &
Jonathan Moeller, Andruid Kerne, Texas A&M University, USA
ZeroTouch is a unique optical sensing technique and architecture
that allows precision sensing of hands, fingers, and objects within
a 2-dimensional plane. We describes the architecture and
technology in great detail.
PAPER | Enabling Concurrent Dual Views on Common
LCD Screens
Seokhwan Kim, Xiang Cao, Haimo Zhang, Microsoft Research
Asia, China
Desney Tan, Microsoft Research, UK
A pure software solution that enables two independent views to
be seen concurrently from different viewing angles on a common
LCD screen without any hardware modification or augmentation.
NOTE | Ultra-Tangibles: Creating Movable Tangible
Objects on Interactive Tables
Mark Marshall, Thomas Carter, University of Bristol, UK
Jason Alexander, Lancaster University, UK
Sriram Subramanian, University of Bristol, UK
Presents a system that uses ultrasound-based air pressure waves
to move multiple tangible objects, independently, around an
interactive surface. Allows the creation of new actuated tangible
interfaces for interactive surfaces.
NOTE | CapStones and ZebraWidgets: Sensing Stacks of
Building Blocks, Dials and Sliders on Capacitive Touch Screens
Liwei Chan, Stefanie Mueller, Anne Roudaut, Patrick Baudisch,
Hasso Plattner Institute, Germany
Demonstrates how to create stackable tangibles that can be
tracked on capacitive touch screens.
76 | ACM Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems
PAPER | Brainput: Enhancing Interactive Systems
with Streaming fNIRS Brain Input &
Erin Solovey, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA
Paul Schermerhorn, Indiana University, USA
Matthias Scheutz, Angelo Sassaroli, Sergio Fantini, Robert Jacob,
Tufts University, USA
Describes a working system that uses brain activity as a passive,
implicit input channel to an interactive system. Shows improved
performance and experience with little additional effort from the user.

n TECHNICAL PRESENTATIONS | BALLROOM G
PHONE FUN: EXTENDING MOBILE
INTERACTION
SESSION CHAIR: Ken Hinckley, Microsoft Research, USA
PAPER | iRotate: Automatic Screen Rotation based on
Face Orientation
Lung-Pan Cheng, Fang-I Hsiao, Yen-Ting Liu, Mike Y. Chen,
National Taiwan University, Taiwan
Our paper makes two contributions: 1) a new approach to
automatic screen rotation based on users’ face orientation instead
of device orientation, 2) quantified the feasibility of using frontcamera
based approach.
PAPER | Looking At You: Fused Gyro and Face Tracking
for Viewing Large Imagery on Mobile Devices
Neel Joshi, Microsoft Research, UK
Abhishek Kar, IIT Kanpur, India
Michael Cohen, Microsoft Research, UK
Describes a touch-free interface for viewing large imagery on
mobile devices, using a sensor fusion methodology that combines
face tracking with gyroscope data.
