• Reducing Disruption from Subtle Information Delivery during a Conversation
  With proliferation of ubiquitous access to information, the question arises of how distracting processing information can be in social settings, especially during a face-to-face conversation. In this paper, we investigate how much information users can consume during a conversation and what information delivery mode, via audio or visual aids, helps them effectively conceal the fact that they are receiving information.
• In-Place: Interacting with Large Displays
  The great thing about large displays is their size. But their size is also the bad news - in terms of conventional interface design. Conventional UI elements may be too far to conveniently reach, or reach at all. This work is directed at exploring alternative modes of interaction which bring the interaction to the user, rather than the reverse - using various techniques and technologies. Emerging from this are new insights in how to work in natural, appropriate and engaging ways.
• Phytics: Physical Analytics
  The goal of the Physical Analytics project, or Phytics, is to perform analytics on the physical actions of users.
• Digits
  Digits is a wrist-worn sensor that recovers the full 3D pose of the user's hand without requiring any external sensing infrastructure or covering the hand itself (unlike data gloves). The system targets mobile settings and is specifically designed to be low-power and easily reproducible using only off-the-shelf hardware. We demonstrate the utility of Digits for a variety of application scenarios, including 3D gaming and eyes-free interaction on the move.
