Designing technology that is more intuitive, accessible, and useful across the full range of human experiences.
We explore grip and motion sensing to afford new techniques that leverage how users naturally manipulate tablet and stylus devices during pen + touch interaction. We can detect whether the user holds the pen in…
In an excerpt from his Microsoft Research Luminaries interview, Senior Researcher Hrvoje Benko discusses the goals of Project RoomAlive and his vision of augmented reality.
This paper introduces a novel document annotation system that aims to enable the kinds of rich communication that usually only occur in face-to-face meetings. Our system, RichReview, lets users create annotations on top of digital…
In an excerpt from his Microsoft Research Luminaries interview, Senior Researcher Hrvoje Benko discusses his inspiration.
In an excerpt from his Microsoft Research Luminaries interview, Senior Researcher Hrvoje Benko comments on the role of research.
In research led by ETH-Zurich, we present a novel machine learning based algorithm extending the interaction space around mobile devices. The technique uses only the RGB camera now commonplace on off-the-shelf mobile devices. Our algorithm…
We explore grip and motion sensing to afford new techniques that leverage how users naturally manipulate tablet and stylus devices during pen-and-touch interaction. We can detect whether the user holds the pen in a writing…
Mano-a-Mano is a unique spatial augmented reality system that combines dynamic projection mapping, multiple perspective views and device-less interaction to support face-to-face, or dyadic, interaction with 3D virtual objects. Its main advantage over more traditional…
Introducing a new real-time articulated hand tracker which can enable new possibilities for human-computer interaction (HCI). Our system accurately reconstructs complex hand poses across a variety of subjects using only a single depth camera. It…
