MouthType: text entry by hand and mouth
In this paper we describe a novel text entry method which uses coordinated motor action of hand and mouth. A vision based algorithm is used to gauge shape parameters of the cavity...

Shape Replication Through Self-Assembly and RNase Enzymes
We introduce the problem of shape replication in the Wang tile self-assembly model. Given an input shape, we consider the problem of designing a self-assembly system which will re...
