CHI '26Hand Gesture Recognition +2

MagFace: Interference-Resistant Facial Gesture Recognition System on Cycling Glasses with Low-Power Magnetic Sensing

Facial interaction provides a safe, hands-free input method for cyclists. However, existing wearable facial gesture recognition suffers from severe interference in real-world conditions such as lighting, vibration, sweat, noise, and temperature changes. We present MagFace, an interference-resistant recognition system…

KiriInflate: Fabricating Cross-Scale Inflatables with Large-Magnitude Contraction and Tunable Stretchability for Tangible Interaction

We present KiriInflate, a rapid, precise, and accessible fabrication method for creating stretchable inflatables with Kirigami structures. These inflatables, fabricated at multiple scales (from fingernail-sized to body-sized), exhibit rapid, large contraction upon inflation up to 83.5% and provide tunable stretchabili…
