ABSTRACT
We propose TouchCast, which is an on-line platform for the creating and sharing of tactile content based on Tactile Copy & Paste. User-Generated Tactile Content refers to tactile content that is created, shared and appreciated by general Internet users. TouchCast enables users to create tactile content by applying tactile textures to existing on- line content (e.g., illustrations) and to share the created content over the network. Applied textures are scanned from real objects as audio signals and we call this technique Tactile Copy & Paste. In this study, we implement the system as a web browser add-on and to create User Generated Tactile Content.

Tag suggestion and localization in user-generated videos based on social knowledge
WSM '10: Proceedings of second ACM SIGMM workshop on Social mediaNowadays, almost any web site that provides means for sharing user-generated multimedia content, like Flickr, Facebook, YouTube and Vimeo, has tagging functionalities to let users annotate the material that they want to share. The tags are then used to ...
Exploring augmented reality for user-generated hyperlocal news content
CHI EA '13: CHI '13 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsTo support and enrich crowdsourcing, sharing and consuming of hyperlocal news content created by the readers we created four scenarios that utilize augmented reality (AR). We used the scenarios to gain an initial understanding of the feasibility and ...
