Studying user-defined iPad gestures for interaction in multi-display environment
Ekaterina Kurdyukova, Matthias Redlin, Elisabeth André · 2012
The paper investigates the iPad gestures that users naturally perform for data transfer. We examine the transfer between two iPads, iPad and a tabletop, and iPad and a public display. Three gesture modalities are investigated: multi-touch gestures, performed using iPad display, spatial gestures, performed by manipulating iPad in 3D space, and direct contact gestures, involving the physical contact of iPad and other device. We report on user choices of the modalities and gesture types, and derive critical points for the design of iPad gestures.
