An Interface with Weight: Taking Interaction by Tilt beyond Disembodied Metaphors
نویسنده
چکیده
We propose a novel way of using tilt as a style of interaction for palmtop computing, as well as a theoretical base for doing so. Beyond superficial and disembodied metaphors, the force of gravity has been chosen to guide navigation within a space larger than the palmtop’s screen. Gravity allows the user to experience ‘an interface with weight’; an understanding put forward as embodied which diverge from previous implementations of tilt interaction, as both the input style as well as the interface answer to the physical world.

The Coceivability of a Disembodied Personal Life Beyond Death Based on David Lund’s Views
As science focuses exclusively on the physical, it seems to assume that the brain has a key role in the origin if not also the constitution of our consciousness; and thus the destruction of the brain, the nervous system, and the body makes it pointless or even absurd to think of any personal consciousness after death. But one need not be convinced by this. However, any effort to investigate a p...

This paper aims to explore some acoustic properties (i.e. duration and pitch amplitude of speech) associated with three different emotions: anger, sadness and joy against neutrality as a reference point, all being intentionally expressed by six Persian speakers. The primary purpose of this study is to find out if there is any correspondence between the given emotions and prosody patterning in P...

-This paper introduces an empirical study to investigate the use of multimodal metaphors in e-learning application in particular within the area of note-taking. The aim of the study is to measure and compare the level of usability of these metaphors. In order to carry out this comparative investigation, two experimental interfaces were built and performed by forty users. In the first interface ...
متن کاملWeatherTank: A Tangible Interface using Weather Metaphors
We present WeatherTank, a tangible interface that looks like a vivarium or a diorama, and uses everyday weather metaphors to present information from a variety of domains, e.g., “a storm is brewing” for increasingly stormy weather, indicating upcoming hectic activities in the stock exchange market. WeatherTank represents such wellknown weather metaphors with real wind, clouds, waves, and rain, ...
