The human body has unique electrical characteristics. These characteristics have been
investigated in various studies in human-computer interaction (HCI) and related research …

Clutches can be used to enhance the functionality of springs or actuators in robotic devices.
Here we describe a lightweight, low-power clutch used to control spring engagement in an …

Many finger sensing input devices now support proximity input, enabling users to perform in-
air gestures. While near-surface interactions increase the input vocabulary, they lack tactile …

We present TableHop, a tabletop display that provides controlled self-actuated deformation
and vibro-tactile feedback to an elastic fabric surface while retaining the ability for high …

We demonstrate a method for stimulating the fingertip with touchable electric arcs above a
hover sensing input device. We built a hardware platform using a high-voltage resonant …

Despite the promise of wearable devices, people can be discouraged from using them due
to the necessity for frequent charging and the subsequent interruption of usage. On another …

Introduction: Coronavirus has become a global pandemic since early 2019. More than180
countries around the world are involved with COVID-19. One of the effective methods to …

A wearable device includes a first electrode configured to contact a user's body; a second
electrode having a pointed shape, in which corona discharge occurs; a power supplier …

We present Intentiō, which allows a potentialized human body to activate low-power
electronic devices by touching them. A potentialized human body, ie, one carrying our …
