Deformable interfaces are emerging in HCI and prototypes show potential for non-rigid
interactions. Previous reviews looked at deformation as a material property of shape …

Shape-changing interfaces are physically tangible, interactive devices, surfaces, or spaces
that allow for rich, organic, and novel experiences with computational devices. Over the last …

We present HaptoBend, a novel shape-changing input device providing passive haptic
feedback (PHF) for a wide spectrum of objects in virtual reality (VR). Past research in VR …

Deformable interfaces offer new possibilities for gestures, some of which have been shown
effective in controlled laboratory studies. Little work, however, has attempted to match …

Smartphones are becoming larger, mainly because bigger screens offer a better experience
for viewing content. One drawback of larger screens is that they make single-hand …

FlexCase is a novel flip cover for smartphones, which brings flexible input and output
capabilities to existing mobile phones. It combines an e-paper display with a pressure-and …

Despite the increasing number of studies on user experience (UX) and user interfaces (UI),
few studies have examined emotional interaction between humans and deformable objects …

We explore controller input map**s for games using a deformable prototype that
combines deformation gestures with standard button input. In study one, we tested discrete …

Current smartphone technology presents many challenges for blind users. This article
introduces the use of deformable inputs for blind users, which offers such users the ability to …

FlexStylus, a flexible stylus, detects deformation of the barrel as a vector with both a
rotational and an absolute value, providing two degrees of freedom with the goal of …
