Introduction What is Skinput Principle of Skinput How it works Advantages Applications Future Implementation Conclusion

MITCOE

Mobiles becomes ubiquitous Mobility, flexibility, responsiveness getting more demands Devices with small sized have some limitations Cant make buttons and screens large without losing benefit of small sized Microsoft introduces new flesh-control input technology-Skinput

MITCOE

Collaboration between Chris Harrison at Carnegie Mellon University and team of Microsoft research lab. Touch-Screen gadgets have become popular due to the advantages they come with Skinput turns the body into a touch-screen interface

MITCOE

Skinput allow the users to simply tap their skin in order to control mobile applications It applies the use of series of sensors to determine where user taps on their arms Each part of body creates different types of vibrations depending on features of bones, muscle and tendons

Bio-Acoustics:

Study Of Sound waves inside living body When a finger taps the skin, distinct forms of acoustics energy are producedLongitudinal waves Transverse waves

MITCOE

Transverse Wave Propagation

Finger Impacts creates

Longitudinal Wave Propagation Finger impact creates longitudinal (compressive)waves Causes internal skeletal structure to vibrate

transverse waves(ripples) Sensor is Activated as wave passes underneath it

Processing : Model
Vibrations are Captured from Sensors and Converted to Digital signal form

This is connected to Mobile device Via Bluetooth

A Software to match sound frequencies to Specific skin location is used

Corresponding Action is implemented in Device

No need to interact with the gadget directly. Dont have to worry about keypad. People with larger fingers get trouble in navigating tiny buttons and keyboards on mobile phones. With Skinput that problem disappears. Can be used without visual screen

We have presented the approach to appropriating the human body as an input surface. We described a novel wearable bio acoustic array used to detect and localize finger taps on the hand and forearm.
