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 …

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 …

Users interact with many reconfigurable objects in daily life. These objects embed
reconfigurations and shape-changing features that users are familiar with. For this reason …

The multi-touch-based pinch to zoom, drag and flick to pan metaphor has gained wide
popularity on mobile displays, where it is the paradigm of choice for navigating 2D …

In this paper, we explore how shape changing interfaces might be used to communicate
emotions. We present two studies, one that investigates which shapes users might create …

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 …

Device deformation allows new types of gestures to be used in interaction. We identify that
the gesture/use-case pairings proposed by interaction designers are often driven by factors …

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

Upcoming mobile devices will have flexible displays, allowing us to explore alternate forms
of user authentication. On flexible displays, users can interact with the device by deforming …
