MultiJam: Fabricating Jamming User Interface using Multi-material 3D Printing

unseok Yang and Junichi Yamaoka

This study proposes a method of fabricating jamming user interfaces using multi-material 3D printing. Through customized fabrication software, users can decide the properties of components of the interface, such as the size/shape of beads. The software automatically renders a membrane and an inner complex of beads after users decide the properties, which simplifies the manufacturing process of the jamming interface. Moreover, 3D printing allows the interface to have a double structure consisting of multiple rooms functioning jamming independently, which realizes a richer haptic experience. Finally, this paper describes the manufacturing process of the jamming interface using 3D modeling software/3D printing. It demonstrates the merits of this method with several applications, such as the haptic device and the shape-changing controller.

TIEboard: Developing Kids Geometric Thinking through Tangible User Interface

Arooj Zaidi and Junichi Yamaoka

This research is based on the concept of computing being embedded within the tangible product that acts as both input and output device eliminating the need of traditional computers for any feedback or guidance.The idea is inspired from traditional geoboard that focuses on the age group from 5 to 8 years old. The main goal is to integrate technology seamlessly into physical manipulative and while using this product kids will be able to make complex shapes that offer kids with memorable learning experience.
