Kenneth P. Fishkin

Abstract There have been many research efforts devoted to tangible user interfaces (TUIs), but it has proven difficult to create a definition or taxonomy that allows us to compare and contrast...

Submitted to Communications of the ACM Version 9 (7/3/99) Embodied User Interfaces for Really Direct Manipulation (2008)

Kenneth P. Fishkin, Anuj Gujar, Beverly L. Harrison, Thomas P. Moran

A major event in the history of human-computer interaction (HCI) was the advent at Xerox PARC in the 1970s of the Graphical User Interface (GUI). The GUI was based on a bitmapped display, making the...

DETECTION (2008)

Joshua R. Smith, Kenneth P. Fishkin, Bing Jiang, Er Mamishev, Matthai Philipose, Adam D. Rea, ...

Many ubiquitous computing scenarios require an intelligent environment to infer what a person is doing or attempting to do. Historically, human-activity tracking techniques have focused on direct...

Embodied User Interfaces for Really Direct Manipulation (2007)

Alicia Buelow, Kenneth P. Fishkin

Treating the body of the handheld device as part of its user interface. A major event in the history of human-computer interaction was the advent of the graphical user interface at Xerox PARC in the...

Wireless User Interface Components for Personal Area Networks (2007)

Kenneth P. Fishkin, Kurt Partridge

Wireless wearable systems allow new user interface components. We highlight two—TiltType, a wrist-mounted device for text I/O, and phicons, objects whose physical appearances are metaphors for...

Current practices for in-home monitoring of elders’ activities of daily living: A study of case managers (2005)

Daniel H. Wilson, Sunny Consolvo, Kenneth P. Fishkin, Matthai Philipose

In this paper, we describe “The Activities of Daily Living Study, ” a two-phased formative study designed to examine the work practices of professionals who perform inhome monitoring of elders...

Hands-on RFID: Wireless wearables for detecting use of objects (2005)

Kenneth P. Fishkin, Matthai Philipose, Adam Rea

Recent research has explored ways to obtain and use knowledge of person-object interactions. We present a novel pair of wearables, a glove and a bracelet, that detect when users interact with...

Mining models of human activities from the web (2004)

Donald Patterson, Kenneth P. Fishkin, Mike Perkowitz, Mike Perkowitz, Matthai Philipose, Matthai Philipose, ...

The ability to determine what day-to-day activity (such as cooking pasta, taking a pill, or watching a video) a person is performing is of interest in many application domains. A system that can do...

I Sense a Disturbance in the Force: Unobtrusive Detection of Interactions with RFID-tagged Objects (2004)

K. Fishkin, B. Jiang, M. Philipose, S. Roy, Kenneth P. Fishkin, Bing Jiang, ...

Abstract. A novel method to infer interactions with passive RFID tagged objects is described. The method allows unobtrusive detection of human interactions with RFID tagged objects without requiring...

Some Methods for Privacy in RFID Communication (2004)

K. Fishin, S. Roy, B. Jiang, Kenneth P. Fishkin, Sumit Roy, Bing Jiang

Abstract. For RFID tags to gain general acceptance, they will have to offer powerful and flexible privacy mechanisms. After reviewing existing and upcoming privacy mechanisms for RFID privacy, we...

Guide: Towards Understanding Daily Life Via Auto-Identification and Statistical Analysis (2003)

Matthai Philipose, Kenneth P. Fishkin, Dieter Fox, Henry Kautz, Donald Patterson, Mike Perkowitz

Abstract. Many recent studies have underscored the applicability to healthcare of a system able to observe and understand day-to-day human activities. The Guide project is aimed at building just such...

Mapping and localization with RFID technology (2003)

Matthai Philipose, Kenneth P Fishkin, Dieter Fox, Dirk Hähnel, Wolfram Burgard

Fig. 1. Typical RFID tags used to label objects. The size of the tag depicted in the center is 11 × 5 cm. Abstract — In this paper we analyze whether recent Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)...

A Flexible, Low-Overhead Ubiquitous System for Medication Monitoring (2003)

Ken Fishkin, Min Wang, Kenneth P. Fishkin, Min Wang

Abstract. For ubiquitous computing systems to gain acceptance, they must be functional, flexible, robust, easy to use, and meet demonstrated user needs within actual user physical contexts and usage...

Embodied User Interfaces for Really Direct Manipulation (1999)

Kenneth P. Fishkin, Anuj Gujar, Beverly L. Harrison, Thomas P. Moran, Roy Want

this paper we illustrate embodied user interface techniques by considering paper document handling tasks. People have developed a highly refined set of physical techniques to perform these document...

Device-Directed Rendering (1994)

Andrew Glassner, Kenneth P. Fishkin, David H. Marimont, Maureen C. Stone

Rendering systems can produce images that include the entire range of visible colors. Imaging hardware, however, can reproduce only a subset of these colors: the device gamut. An image can only be...
