ABSTRACT
Information is traditionally confined to paper or digitally to a screen. In this paper, we introduce WUW, a wearable gestural interface, which attempts to bring information out into the tangible world. By using a tiny projector and a camera mounted on a hat or coupled in a pendant like wearable device, WUW sees what the user sees and visually augments surfaces or physical objects the user is interacting with. WUW projects information onto surfaces, walls, and physical objects around us, and lets the user interact with the projected information through natural hand gestures, arm movements or interaction with the object itself.

SixthSense: a wearable gestural interface
SIGGRAPH ASIA '09: ACM SIGGRAPH ASIA 2009 SketchesIn this note, we present SixthSense, a wearable gestural interface that augments the physical world around us with digital information and lets us use natural hand gestures to interact with that information. By using a tiny projector and a camera ...
BackHand: Sensing Hand Gestures via Back of the Hand
UIST '15: Proceedings of the 28th Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software & TechnologyIn this paper, we explore using the back of hands for sensing hand gestures, which interferes less than glove-based approaches and provides better recognition than sensing at wrists and forearms. Our prototype, BackHand, uses an array of strain gauge ...
"Megereality": Leveraging Physical Affordances for Multi-Device Gestural Interaction in Augmented Reality
CHI EA '20: Extended Abstracts of the 2020 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsWe present a novel gestural interaction strategy for multi-device interactions in augmented reality (AR), in which we leverage existing physical affordances of everyday products and spaces for intuitive interactions in AR. To explore this concept, we ...
