Pen-Based Interfaces• Great for notes, sketches• Lack of shortcuts problematic
Pen-Based Interfaces• Great for notes, sketches• Lack of shortcuts problematic• Round trip problem
Localized User Interfaces• Gesture Interaction
• Tivoli (Moran, Chiu, Melle. UIST ’97)• SKETCH (Zeleznik, Herndon & Hughes. SIGGRAPH ’96)• DENIM (Newman, Lin, Hong & Landay. HCI ’03)
• Menu Interaction• Marking Menu (Kurtenbach & Buxton. CHI ’93)• Flow Menu (Guimbretière & Winograd. UIST ’03)• Scroll ring (Smith & schraefel. Moscovich & Hughes. UIST ’04)
• Hybrid• Scriboli (Hinckley, Baudisch, Ramos, & Guimbretière. CHI ’05)
Localized User Interfaces• Gesture Interaction
• Ink confused with gesture• Explicitly switch with button
• Menu Interaction• Activated with button
Localized User Interfaces
Localized User Interfaces
Design Challenge1. Localized user interface2. Clearly distinct from ink input3. No button required
Tracking menus

Hover Widgets• Gesture in tracking state• Widget fades in• Click on widget
Hover Widgets
Independent Variables• Technique (Hover Widget, Icon)• GridN (4, 8, 12)• Distance (300, 600, 900, 1200)
Summary• New distinct command layer• Button free • Localized UI
• Reduce time• Minimal shift of attention
Future Work• Customize & adapt
Future Work• Customize & adapt• Large displays
