proximity

Products like the iPhone and Microsoft’s Surface are changing the way we think about computing by allowing direct interaction through touch that feels physical and natural. At the same time, products such as Nintendo’s Wii remote, inexpensive sensors and easily obtainable microcontrollers are allowing us to take these new gestural metaphors into physical space. This has inspired us to begin investigating seamless interaction between us and gesture interfaces.

The following experiments focus on scaling touch and gesture interactions into human-scale experiences. We are exploring the body as navigation, physical gesturing, and alternative sources of inputs and outputs that feel natural.
