Presentation on the latest User Interfaces. I've talked about mind controlled tablets, TWINE, a natural interface where devices can share files just by swiping it from one device to another, and the eye tribe.
2. MIND-CONTROLLED
TABLETS
⢠Samsung has begun testing mind-controlled
tablets and smartphones as the next step
toward freeing people from tapping on
keyboards or screens.
⢠Samsungâs Emerging Technology Lab teamed
up with Roozbeh Jafri (Electrical Engineer).
⢠Their aim is to install this technology on the
Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet.
3. MIND-CONTROLLED
TABLETS
HOW IT WORKS?
⢠Users can only carry out mind-controlled
actions about once every 5 seconds.
⢠It has an accuracy of only 80 to 95%.
⢠Users must wear a cap covered with
electrodes and wires.
⢠It picks up the patterns in the brainâs
electrical signals and performs the action.
4. TWINE
⢠Created by John and David at the MIT
media lab.
⢠Twine is a wireless module tightly
integrated with a cloud-based service.
⢠It is a device filled with sensors, detects
anything from moisture,vibration to
magnetism.
⢠Stick it anywhere, and itâll tweet, email, or
sms you.
⢠No coding required.
5. TWINE
HOW IT WORKS?
⢠You may plunk your twine on the main
door of your house where its built-in
accelerometer sensor will sense if the door
has been knocked.
⢠Then head to the TWINE web app, Spool
and create a simple rule based program.
⢠âIf TWINE senses a knock, send me a text
message.â
6. TWINE
SENSORS
⢠Internal temperature sensor
⢠Internal accelerometer (for vibration,
impact, and motion detection)
⢠A magnetic switch (useful for doors and
anything else that moves)
⢠Moisture sensor (detect the presence of
water)
⢠Breakout board --- allows you to easily
wire up other sensors that you think up â
no soldering required!
12. NATURAL INTERFACE FOR
TRANSFERING FILES
FROM ONE DEVICE TO
ANOTHER
⢠Dropbox and iCloud provide wireless
synchronization of data, but non of these
provide a tangible connection.
⢠Ishac Betran came up with a natural interface
for transferring files from one device to
another.
13. NATURAL INTERFACE FOR
TRANSFERING FILES
FROM ONE DEVICE TO
ANOTHER
HOW IT WORKS?
⢠You hold the devices next to each other.
⢠Each device forms a half moon which means
the devices are now connected.
⢠Then to share a file, youâd drag it from one
half moon to another, using swipes and
pinches.
17. THE EYE TRIBE
⢠It introduces eye control technology.
⢠Computers respond to the movement of
the userâs eye.
⢠They connect a device with infrared
sensors and infrared cameras.
⢠Eye tribe says, its not using chips to
process the eye tracking data, instead
its relying on the processors already in a
mobile device.
18. THE EYE TRIBE
HOW IT WORKS?
⢠For it to work you first have to calibrate with
the software by looking and following a dot.
⢠Finally, when thatâs done, you can scroll and
you can also play a game with your eyes
called ninja fruit.
