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 have emerged as a new method for interacting with computers,
using dynamic changes in a device's physical shape for input and output. With the advances …

Flat touch interfaces, with or without screens, pervade the modern world. However, their
haptic feedback is minimal, prompting much research into haptic and shape-changing …

The standard definition for “physicalizations” is “a physical artifact whose geometry or
material properties encode data”. While this working definition provides the fundamental …

Shape displays enable people to touch simulated surfaces. A common architecture of such
devices uses a mechatronic pin-matrix. Besides their complexity and high cost, these matrix …

We propose WaddleWalls, a room-scale interactive partitioning system using a swarm of
robotic partitions that allows occupants to interactively reconfigure workspace partitions to …

Materials play an influential role in determining the way people interact with and experience
objects. This impact is particularly important to TUI designers, as the artefacts they design …

The majority of errors in making processes can be tracked back to errors in dimensional
specifications. While technical aspects of measurement, such as precision and speed have …

Ever since the introduction of the desktop interface, HCI has strived to develop alternatives
that make interacting with computers more physical, embodied and ubiquitous. In particular …

Toolkits for shape-changing interfaces (SCIs) enable designers and researchers to easily
explore the broad design space of SCIs. However, despite their utility, existing approaches …
