ABSTRACT
"Active Click" is a new interface mechanism for addling tactile feedback to touch panels. A small actuator is attached to a body of PDA or the backside of a touch panel. The tactile feedback, created by driving the actuator with a short pulse, is perceived by the grasping hand or tapping finger-tip when the panel is tapped. Active Click is effective in improving the input speed of touch panel operation especially in noisy situations. Active click is also useful for large touch panel devices such as public information terminals or ATMs.

Layered touch panel: the input device with two touch panel layers
CHI EA '02: CHI '02 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsWe developed Layered Touch Panel that expands the interaction techniques of touch panel. Layer Touch Panel has two touch panel layers, so that it is able to distinguish two touch states such as "finger on screen" and "finger above screen". With the ...
Multi-push Display using 6-axis Motion Platform
ITS '14: Proceedings of the Ninth ACM International Conference on Interactive Tabletops and SurfacesThis study designed and developed a novel tactile display that provides a multi-push sensation by using a 6-axis motion platform. The display mechanically controls the position and orientation of a surface panel. A user touching an on-screen button with ...
HybridTouch: an intuitive manipulation technique for PDAs using their front and rear surfaces
MobileHCI '06: Proceedings of the 8th conference on Human-computer interaction with mobile devices and servicesThis paper describes a new manipulation technique for small-screen mobile devices. The proposed technique, called HybridTouch, uses a touchpad attached to the rear surface of a PDA. A user can manipulate the PDA by simultaneously touching the front ...
