Although interaction with computing systems has become remarkably diverse in recent years, the computer mouse remained the primary pointing device for daily computer use. Being solely an input device, the classical mouse decouples input from output. In this paper, we propose to extend the mouse to a device that can be actuated by the user and the c...

The Leap Motion Controller is a sensor for precise hand tracking; it is a device used for human interaction with computer systems via gestures. The study presented in this paper evaluates its workspace in real-world conditions. An exact replica of a human operator’s hand was used to measure the sensor’s precision, and therefore determine its hand t...

... Many authors investigated potential benefits of actuated desktop interfaces; in such interfaces, some composites can move in a manner that can be noticed by the user and benefit them in some way, e.g. actuated mice and keyboards [10,142], actuated monitors [204], actuated desktops [152], actuated desktop devices, such as swarm robots [139,140] and interactive lamps [175]. ...
