Project Outcome: 3.HGI(Hand Gesture Interface) for virtual reality

At first, I created a virtual hand in Unity, which mimics your hand movement precisely. The hand movement using the glove renders a virtual reality to feel like a physical environment due to the precise sensor-based tracking of each joint in the hand.

"The proprioceptive gesture is powerful for fine tuning interactions"

"The proprioceptive gesture is powerful for fine tuning interactions"

The distance in between our thumb and index fingers is a proprioceptive interaction, as we intrinsically know the maximum and minimum of the span without seeing it. The reason why this gesture use thumb and index finger is that our thumb and index finger are more frequently used than other three fingers.

How I got here? : Understanding the users' behavior pattern

I created a gesture library to explore hand gesture interface based on the insights from over 3 rounds of user-testing.

Design intention

1. Explore everyday gestures as an integral part of our research

2. Explore The users' physical interaction with their hand and analyze it to find the pattern 

3. Compare the similarities between everyday gestures and the gestures people would choose to control their devices

4. Explore the use of hand gesture as a means of human-computer interaction and Develop Intuitive and Ergonomic Gesture Interfaces for controlling the User interface such as in-car infotainment system, AR/VR, and etc

5. Develop Hand gesture interface by mimicking familiar physical interactions with physical tools. This metaphor makes it easier to control, learn, and remember our own gesture interface.

The key things I wanted to understand

• What are some examples of hand gestures in everyday life?
  
• Are there any common symbols or metaphors for the chosen gestures?
  
• What are the most common gestures for the interface?
  
• How difficult is it to image gestures for Everyday Life? (Average difficulty of imaging gestures)
  
• How are hand gestures used as a means of human-computer interaction?
  
• What is the median of the sensor value for the chosen gestures? (Average sensor value)
  
• Analyze the sensor value which is The  Flexion  of Each  Finger by using the flexible bend sensor
