Abstract |
|
Skinput is a technology that appropriates human body for acoustic transmission, enabling the skin to be utilized as an input surface. This technology allows human hand and arm as touch screens, by sensing various low-frequency vibrations and sounds that are generated by touching different part of the hand or arm. These discrete sound waves (signals) are sensed using various sensors worn on the arm in the form of arm band. The scientists also explains the different types of signal generated from soft and hard tissues, how body density, mass and size also help in making the signals discrete. The prototype model uses a wireless approach like Bluetooth to send the signals as a command to the various devices (Smart phones, Ipod, Tablet, etc) connected to it. |
