Bridging the Gap Between People, Mobile Devices, and the Physical World

Xiao, Chang January 2021 (has links)
Human-computer interaction (HCI) is being revolutionized by computational design and artificial intelligence. As the diversity of user interfaces shifts from personal desktops to mobile and wearable devices, yesterday’s tools and interfaces are insufficient to meet the demands of tomorrow’s devices. This dissertation describes my research on leveraging different physical channels (e.g., vibration, light, capacitance) to enable novel interaction opportunities. We first introduce FontCode, an information embedding technique for text documents. Given a text document with specific fonts, our method can embed user-specified information (e.g., URLs, meta data, etc) in the text by perturbing the glyphs of text characters while preserving the text content. The embedded information can later be retrieved using a smartphone in real time. Then, we present Vidgets, a family of mechanical widgets, specifically push buttons and rotary knobs that augment mobile devices with tangible user interfaces. When these widgets are attached to a mobile device and a user interacts with them, the nonlinear mechanical response of the widgets shifts the device slightly and quickly. Subsequently, this subtle motion can be detected by the Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs), which is commonly installed on mobile devices. Next, we propose BackTrack, a trackpad placed on the back of a smartphone to track finegrained finger motions. Our system has a small form factor, with all the circuits encapsulated in a thin layer attached to a phone case. It can be used with any off-the-shelf smartphone, requiring no power supply or modification of the operating systems. BackTrack simply extends the finger tracking area of the front screen, without interrupting the use of the front screen. Lastly, we demonstrate MoiréBoard, a new camera tracking method that leverages a seemingly irrelevant visual phenomenon, the moiré effect. Based on a systematic analysis of the moiré effect under camera projection, MoiréBoard requires no power nor camera calibration. It can easily be made at a low cost (e.g., through 3D printing) and ready to use with any stock mobile device with a camera. Its tracking algorithm is computationally efficient and can run at a high frame rate. It is not only simple to implement, but also tracks devices at a high accuracy, comparable to the state-of-the-art commercial VR tracking systems.

Software Development for Wireless Communication between Mobile Robots and Handheld Devices

Goergen, Frank 01 January 2003 (has links)
Wireless communication provides an effective means by which mobile robots can be operated, field tested, and trained remotely. This thesis explores a design that is intended to simplify the process of creating communication software for these and other similar purposes. The proposed software is responsible for generating client-server modules that are able to be readily loaded into any number of wirelessly connected mobile robots and handheld devices. In general, the system is designed to be low-cost, simple to use, and robust, with particular design considerations for software portability and modularity. Portability is obtained by using the Java™ platform and modularity is obtained by incorporating object-oriented design. The test platform for this system is comprised of a Palm OS® handheld device, a Linux-based mobile robot, and a wireless Ethernet connection.
