Microsoft Research Cambridge’s Steve Hodges group over Sensors group spending their time working sensing technologies devices which would make life easier folk systems content. Hmmm, t seem suspiciously like a new foray in world , someone reinvented keyboard combination? Apparently not, working, “An Interactive Belt-worn Badge Retractable String-based Input Mechanism”, which was presented Association Machinery’s 2013 SIGCHI Conference Factors Systems.
Hodges said, “We interact content more—such diaries, emails, traffic status, info. But even if phone pocket, be a pain content cases. The badge content simply place relative body, using muscle memory. It’s much easier ‘snacking’ amounts content.”
What above lightweight, interactive badge prototype flesh, notice, come embedded LCD display which off dynamic information wearer, instead usual work badge ID carries mugshot ever, nitty gritty such work position among other details. T different, boasts -based input capabilities been integrated within ’s retractable string, paving -h. Of course, plenty still needs done, especially when design factor, but I am quite sure team would relish, hope a commercial solution sooner rather than later.
