We present a novel model to predict error rates in temporal pointing. With temporal pointing,
a target is about to appear within a limited time window for selection. Unlike in spatial …

On-screen gamepads are increasingly used as controllers for video games on distant
screens, yet lack the typical tactile feedback known from hardware controllers. We …

The activation point of a button is defined as the depth at which it invokes a make signal.
Regular buttons are activated during the downward stroke, which occurs within the first 20 …

Research investigating factors in the design of tilt-based interfaces is presented. An
experiment with 16 participants used a tablet and a 2D pointing task to compare position …

Virtual collision techniques are interaction techniques for invoking discrete events in a virtual
scene, eg throwing, pushing, or pulling an object with a pointer. The conventional approach …

We conducted a study comparing two touch-based and two tilt-based game control methods
using a Pong-like game over two one-hour sessions. Each input method was compared by …

Scrolling is a frequent operation on a mobile screen. The current scrolling method for a
mobile device is both time-consuming and fatigue-prone, especially for one-handed …

Even though smartphones offer a broad design space for being used as input devices for
video games, their form factor makes them less ergonomic than physical gamepads …

We propose the use of device tilt in conjunction with touch control in mobile “dual-analog”
games–games using two virtual analog sticks to independently control player movement …

Many innovations have been proposed for new game interfaces, mostly focused in gesture
and body movement interpretation and motion based sensors, such as accelerometers and …
