SketchSpace requires no augmentation of the device itself, but instead it uses a depth-sensing Kinect camera to simulate the use of hardware sensors by using depth information to infer an object's threedimensional position, motion, proximity, shape, deformations, and touch events on its surface. A designer can map these inputs to desktop applications in real-time and thus experiment with different interactions. We showcase how SketchSpace can be used to prototype two devices: from tilt sensitive mice to bendable displays. In general, we discuss how this simplifies the process of generating an interactive device sketch and supports rapid exploration of design solutions.}, url = {https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/publication/sketchspace-designing-interactive-behaviors-passive-materials-2/}, edition = {CHI 2011-Extended Abstracts, Vancouver, BC, Canada}, }
