Body Interfacing
One of the newest invention ideas in interface devices is Skinput.
This invention allows the sufaces of your body to be used as a touchscreen.
This is how it works.
An armband projects the image of a menu or keyboard onto your hand or forearm. This armband also contains an bio-acoustic sensor that can detect and analyze sound frequencies.
Because of bone density, joints, and soft tissue, different locations on the body have different acoustic properties.
When you tap your finger on different parts of your body it creates a unique frequency based on the specific area.
Skinput can detect what part of a projected image you are touching and in turn can transmit a wireless signal to a computer, smart phone or other device.
Skinput was created by the project team of Desney Tan, a senior researcher in the Visulization and Interaction Area at Microsoft Research; Dan Morris, a researcher in the Computational User Experiences at Microsoft Research; and Chris Harrison, a third year Ph.D student in the Human-Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon Univeristy. _________________ seo services uk |

Acting on the human body, the shock waves cause pressure waves through the tissues.
These waves mostly damage junctions between tissues of different densities (bone and muscle) or the interface between tissue and air. Lungs and the abdominal cavity, which contain air, are particularly injured. _________________ serviced offices city of london|serviced offices city |

The first way that the suit reacts is when the hand is touched by bare skin. Drawing inspiration from people's own reactions to touching skin with their hands, we wanted there to be a quick light up of all the LEDs on the arm all the way up to the neck. The LEDs would beat quickly from that point then slow to a steady beat as the contact is held. The red LEDs around the face would light up as well to simulate the somewhat involuntary act of blushing that can occur when skin contact is made and even more when it is maintained. _________________ DJs Chicago
