Abstract

Spatial Augmented Reality has shown promising results to support the industrial design process, this paper explores improvements by incorporating tangible buttons to allow dynamically positioned controls with a wearable glove sensor system for simulating prototype design functionality. We present a system to support the low cost development of an active user interface that is not restricted to the two-dimensional surface of a traditional computer display.
