GaussStudio
Rong-Hao Liang, Han-Chih Kuo, Miguel Bruns, Bing‐Yu Chen · 2016
The analog Hall-sensor grid, GaussSense, is a thin-form magnetic-field camera technology for designing expressive occlusion-free, near-surface tangible interactions on conventional portable displays. The studio will provide hands-on experiences that combine physical designs and the GaussSense technology. Through a series of brainstorming and making exercises, participants will learn how to exploit natural hand and micro interactions through designing the expressions and affordances of physical objects, and know how to utilize physical constraints to provide additional kinesthetic awareness and haptic feedback. The exercises will be including form-giving, electronic prototyping, and hacking physical toys that are prepared by either the organizers or participants.
