ShiftTouch

Multiple Input Area while Reducing Screen Occlusion

Introduction

The contributions of this paper are as follows.

• We propose a passive and tangible interface, which can be combined with varioustypes of kinesthetic feedback,reduces screen occlusion by up to 80.5% compared to conventional touch extension interfaces.
• We present an interface structure to control fne touch coordinates and investigate the optimal electrode parameters for the interface.
• We demonstrate applications for various form factors implemented using the ShiftTouch technique.
• We analyze preliminary user feedback to clarify the advantages along with the remaining challenges.
