Many options exist for prototyping software-based
human-computer interfaces, but there are few comparable
technologies that allows application developers
to create ad-hoc hardware interfaces with corresponding
ease and flexibility. In this paper, we present a system
for rapidly constructing low cost prototypes of mobile input
devices by leveraging wireless sensor nodes. We
demonstrate two proof-of-concept applications-a conductors
baton and a scene navigation controller-that are
prototyped using wireless sensor networks. These applications
illustrate that wireless sensor technology can be
used to quickly and inexpensively prototype diverse physical
user interfaces. We believe that this technology will
be of value in many areas, including the study of ergonomics,
haptic interfaces, collaborative design, low-cost
VR systems, and usability research.
