iSkin: Flexible, Stretchable and Visually Customizable On-Body Touch Sensors for Mobile Computing
Figure 1. iSkin is a thin, flexible, stretchable and visually customizable touch sensor that can be worn directly on the skin. We present three novel classes of on-body devices based on iSkin:
(a) FingerStrap, exemplified here with a strap on the index finger for fast, one-handed control of incoming calls;
(b) Extensions for wearable devices, exemplified here with a rollout keyboard attached to a smart watch; and SkinStickers, exemplified here with
(c) an input surface for a music player attached to the forearm,
(d) a click wheel on the back of the hand and (e) a headset control behind the ear.
