CapacitiveMarker: Novel interaction method using visual marker integrated with conductive pattern

Kohei Ikeda, Koji Tsukada · ACM International Conference Proceeding Series · 2015

The visual markers have spatial limitations to require certain distances between a camera and markers. Meanwhile, as capacitive multi-touch displays on mobile devices have become popular, many researchers proposed interaction techniques using conductive patterns and a capacitive display. In this study, we propose a novel visual marker, CapacitiveMarker, which can be recognized both by a camera and capacitive display. The CapacitiveMarker consists of two layered markers: a visual marker printed on a seal and a conductive pattern on a plastic film. We also propose a new interaction method using CapacitiveMarker through applications.
