Despite the convenience and intuitiveness of multi-touch gestures, there are some tasks that do not allow users to effectively conduct even using two-handed gestures. We propose novel input techniques of combining hand and foot gestures to enhance user interactions on tabletop environments. We have developed an early prototype of a sensor-based foot platform which recognizes subtle foot gestures, designed foot gestures and interactions which support simultaneous users' tasks and obtained their informal feedback.
