    Comparative Evaluation of Sensor Devices for Micro-Gestures
    (The Eurographics Association, 2017) Simmons, H.; Devi, R.; Ens, Barrett; Billinghurst, Mark; Tony Huang and Arindam Dey
    This paper presents a comparative evaluation of two hand gesture recognition sensors and their ability to detect small, sub millimeter movement. We explore the capabilities of these devices by testing if users can reliably use the sensors to select a simple user interface element in 1D space using three distinct gestures a small movement of the thumb and forefinger representing a slider, the slightly larger movement of moving a finger up and down and a large gesture of moving the whole hand up and down. Results of our preliminary study reveal that the palm provides the fastest and most reliable input. While not conclusive, data from our initial study indicates that the Leap sensor provides lower error, difficulty and fatigue than the Soli sensor with our test gesture set.

    Comparative Evaluation of Sensor Devices for Micro-Gestures
    (The Eurographics Association, 2017) Simmons, H.; Devi, R.; Ens, Barrett; Billinghurst, Mark; Tony Huang and Arindam Dey
    This paper presents a comparative evaluation of two gesture recognition sensors and their ability to detect small, movements known as micro-gestures. In this work we explore the capabilities of these devices by testing if users can reliably use the sensors to select a target using a simple 1D user interface element. We implemented three distinct gestures, including a large gesture of moving the whole hand up and down; a smaller gesture of moving a finger up and down and; and a small movement of the thumb against the forefinger to represent a virtual slider. Demo participants will be able to experience these three gestures with to sensing devices, a Leap Motion and Google Soli.
