Document Summary

Andrejevic reading is very likely to be on the final exam. Being watched/monitored through surveillance is inevitable: in modern society there are many things that monitor us, even if we like it or not, ex. Surround haptics or tactile brush: tactile technology that creates high-resolution, continuous, moving tactile sensations anywhere on the body. Haptic is a feedback mechanism that communicates information via the skin and dermis. Create an environment that immerses the user in a world of tactile stimulation. Gestural commands physically chunk command and operates into a single action. Bimanual interaction enables higher input bandwidth stroke-based gestures can be easier to learn and recall than keyboard based ones. Different commands can often be intermingled implicitly when gestures also specify command parameters. Gestures can also be committed to physical muscle memory which can help users focus on their task. A quantitative evaluation vs. a control indicates that gesture efficient as video demonstrations at teaching gestures.
