BodySpace: inferring body pose for natural control of a music player

We describe the BodySpace system, which uses inertial sensing and pattern recognition to allow the gestural control of a music player by placing the device at different parts of the body. We demonstrate a new approach to the segmentation and recognition of gestures for this kind of application and show how simulated physical model-based techniques can shape gestural interaction.

User Interfaces: Haptic I/O; H.5.2. User Interfaces: Input devices and strategies;
