RoomAlive: magical experiences enabled by scalable, adaptive projector-camera units (2014, background): “Previous work has explored SAR in mobile form factors [14,31,41], steerable projector systems [27,42], and even for novel gaming experiences: e.g. racing a car across a desktop [6], playing chess [44], or playing miniature golf on top of wooden blocks [19].”
Using a depth camera as a touch sensor (2010, background): “Wilson’s PlayAnywhere [17] single camera system exploits the shadow cast by the finger to determine range of the finger to the surface.”
Calibration games: making calibration tasks enjoyable by adding motivating game elements (2011, background): “Examples of systems that have addressed calibration include technologies for interactive touch [8,23], 3D sound [15], locationsensing technology [6], eye-tracking [20], heads-up displays [1], glove-based input [10], personalized color displays [5], and physiological sensing – for detecting emotional”
WUW - wear Ur world: a wearable gestural interface (2009, methodology): “The tiny projector is connected to a laptop or mobile device and projects visual information enabling surfaces, walls and physical objects around us to be used as interfaces; while the camera tracks user hand gestures using simple computer-vision based techniques.”
The reacTable: exploring the synergy between live music performance and tabletop tangible interfaces (2007, background): “Recent implementations such as the PlayAnywhere [40] or the reacTable itself, clearly demonstrate that these reservations are not applicable anymore.”
User-defined gestures for surface computing (2009, methodology): “The commands were application-agnostic, obtained from desktop and tabletop systems [7,17,27,31,34,35].”
