  1. The Frontiers of HCI Haptics, Smell and Brain Interaction

  2. Learning Outcomes • Describe how haptics are used on • Mobile devices • Medical devices • Research tools • Describe the exploration of • Olfactory detection and production • Brain wave detection

  3. The Human Perceptual System • Physical Aspects of Perception • Touch (tactile/cutaneous) • Located in the skin, enables us to feel • Texture • Heat • Pain • Movement (kinesthetic/proprioceptive) • The location of your body and its appendages • The direction and speed of your movements

  4. Physical Aspects of Perception • Movement (kinesthetic/proprioceptive) • We use the angles of our joints to determine the position of our limbs • We determine movement by the rate of change in the position of those joints

  5. Mobile devices • Phone output • Vibrate – silent alert. • These can be used like earcons – different signals for different events • Does your phone have different alerts? • Can you tell the difference?

  6. Mobile devices • Phone input • Touch screens • See previous lecture • Accelerometer - shaking actions • Inconsistent interactions, high error rates • Passive input • Gps • Altimeter • Temperature • Humidity

  7. Using Haptics in Interaction Design • ImmersiveTouch™

  8. Using Haptics in Interaction Design • Medical Uses • surgeon controls ‘robot’ • Surgeon’s view zoomed • Small device reduces invasiveness • ~~$2mill

  9. Using Haptics in Interaction Design • The GuideCane (Ulrich and Borenstein, 2001)

  10. Using Haptics in Interaction Design • The ActiveBelt (Tsukada and Yasumrua, 2004) Device architecture of ActiveBelt GPS, global positioning system; LED, light-emitting diode.

  11. Using Haptics in Interaction Design • Motor Disabilities • HAL-5 (Hybrid Assistive Limb), CYBERDYNE Inc. www.cyberdyne.jp

  12. Force Feedback Displays • Manipulator Gloves CyberGlove II CyberGrasp CyberForce

  13. Technical Issues Concerning Haptics • Desktop Devices • SensAble PHANTOM haptic devices PHANTOM Premium McSig – our work with visually impaired http://dl.acm.org.ezproxy.auckland.ac.nz/citation.cfm?id=1993060.1993067&coll=DL&dl=ACM&CFID=333467105&CFTOKEN=52399920

  14. Technical Issues Concerning Haptics • Desktop Devices • Space Interface Device for Artificial Reality (SPIDAR)(Sato, 2002) SPIDAR-8. Rubik’s Cube SPIDAR-8. Finger attachments. PHANTOM Premium 1.5 & 1.5 high-force haptic device

  15. Olfactory - Odour/ Smell • Smell is essentially our ability to detect specific chemical particles in the air • We can detect about 4000 different smells • And the can be combined in millions different ways • Smell is very deep in our animal brain

  16. Technology of Odour • Input • Detecting particular chemicals is possible • Drug/ explosive sniffers • Detecting the range of smells in anything like human terms and extremely difficult task • Output • Manufacturing particular smells possible ‘fresh cookies’ • Active generation of range of smells very difficult – too many chemicals and too supple differences

  17. Smell – current research • Not sure how many different smells can begenerated. • Check out the video • Yongsoon Choi, Rahul Parsani, Xavier Roman, Anshul Vikram Pandey, and Adrian David Cheok. 2012. Sound perfume: building positive impression during face-to-face communication. In SIGGRAPH Asia 2012 Emerging Technologies (SA '12). ACM, New York, NY, USA, , Article 22 , 3 pages. DOI=10.1145/2407707.2407729 http://doi.acm.org.ezproxy.auckland.ac.nz/10.1145/2407707.2407729

  18. Brain Computer Interact • Detecting the brain waves and interpreting • Inside the skull – accurate but invasive http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogBX18maUiM • From outside the skull – not very accurate

  19. Summary • Describe how haptics are used on • Mobile devices • Output – vibrate • Input accelerometers & gps • Medical devices • Keyhole surgery with remote tool guidance • Research tools • Haptic pen input and output devices – move in full 3D space • Describe the exploration of • Olfactory detection and production • Detection of specific chemicals possible • Production of a limited range of scents • Brain wave detection • Many new devices to gather brain activity from cap sensors, • still fairly limited interaction
