Representing microgestures interaction for wearable computing

Published: 26 September 2023 Publication History

Abstract

Microgestures, i.e. fast and subtle movements of the fingers, offer always available and versatile interaction that makes them promising for wearable computing. While research has been done to define sets of microgestures and sensing systems, we do not know how to best represent microgestures and their associated commands which is essential for the adoption of microgesture interaction. Thus, this thesis focuses on how microgestures and their corresponding commands can be represented to users and discovered by them.
