Talking Tangibles: Design for Peripheral Interaction

摘要

This paper describes ongoing research in a 4 year PhD project that started in June 2009. With the computer becoming pervasive in everyday life, a need for new interaction styles has emerged. In the realm of the vision of calm technology [6], we see potential in interaction shifting to the periphery of the attention. The aim of this research is to study interactive systems designed for peripheral interaction by combining physical artifacts and audio.
