Designing and Evaluating an Interface for the Composition of Vibro-Tactile Patterns Using Gestures

“…Merola (2007) considers six dimensions of expressivity for communicative gestures: 1) spatial domain around the gesturer, 2) temporal domain, 3) power behind the gesture, 4) fluidity of the gesture, 5) repetition, and 6) overall activity, where the quantity of body movements over a time span is described by overall activity. Argenot (1973) furthers this claim by suggesting that arm and hand gestures can provide information about some elements of expression. These elements include a wide range of complex emotional elements such as interrogation, frankness, tenderness, dominance, rejection, etc.…”

“…As discussed previously in Section 2.1.2, the user interaction with the system was designed to take advantage of real-world gesture archetypes similar to those discussed by Argenot (1973). In Vibro-Motion, hand gestures are used to control the frequency, vibrational strength and position of the vibrations produced through the voice coils on the Emoti-Chair as follows:…”

Semiotics 1981

“…The earliest work in English was a book by John Bulwer, published in 1644, entitled Chirologia, or the Natural Language of the Hand whereunto is added Chironomia, or the Art of Manual Rhetoric (Cleary 1974). Other works of this period devoted to gesture include de Conrart's Traite de l'Action de l'Orateur of 1657 and Abbe Bretteville's volume on gesture of 1689 (Angenot 1973). Within the English tradition the next most comprehensive treatise is probably Gilbert Austin's Chironomia which was published in 1802.…”
