Fully Fabric-Based Triboelectric Nanogenerators as Self-Powered Human-Machine Interactive Keyboards

Combination flexible and stretchable textiles with self-powered sensors bring a novel insight into wearable functional electronics and cyber security in the era of Internet of Things.This work presents a highly flexible and self-powered fully fabric-based triboelectric nanogenerator(F-TENG)with sandwiched structure for biomechanical energy harvesting and real-time biometric authentication.The prepared F-TENG can power a digital watch by low-frequency motion and respond to the pressure change by the fall of leaves.A self-powered wearable keyboard(SPWK)is also fabricated by integrating large-area F-TENG sensor arrays,which not only can trace and record electrophysiological signals,but also can identify individuals’typing characteristics by means of the Haar wavelet.Based on these merits,the SPWK has promising applications in the realm of wearable electronics,self-powered sensors,cyber security,and artificial intelligences.

Human Machine Interface with Wearable Electronics Using Biodegradable Triboelectric Films for Calligraphy Practice and Correction

Letter handwriting,especially stroke correction,is of great importance for recording languages and expressing and exchanging ideas for individual behavior and the public.In this study,a biodegradable and conductive carboxymethyl chitosan-silk fibroin(CSF)film is prepared to design wearable triboelectric nanogenerator(denoted as CSF-TENG),which outputs of V_(oc)≈165 V,I_(sc)≈1.4μA,and Q_(sc)≈72 mW cm^(−2).Further,in vitro biodegradation of CSF film is performed through trypsin and lysozyme.The results show that trypsin and lysozyme have stable and favorable biodegradation properties,removing 63.1%of CSF film after degrading for 11 days.Further,the CSF-TENG-based human-machine interface(HMI)is designed to promptly track writing steps and access the accuracy of letters,resulting in a straightforward communication media of human and machine.The CSF-TENG-based HMI can automatically recognize and correct three representative letters(F,H,and K),which is benefited by HMI system for data processing and analysis.The CSF-TENG-based HMI can make decisions for the next stroke,highlighting the stroke in advance by replacing it with red,which can be a candidate for calligraphy practice and correction.Finally,various demonstrations are done in real-time to achieve virtual and real-world controls including writing,vehicle movements,and healthcare.

Haptic Interface with Magnetic Field Sensitive Elastomer

Sense of touch is one of the important information from environment for human to live in daily life. Haptic interface is a hot topic in virtual reality but almost all of the devices focus on fingers and hands as targets. In this paper, we focus on the foot haptic device with magnetic flied sensitive elastomer （MSE）. We developed a haptic unit used as a magnetic field generator for MSE and contact point of foot haptic device. MSE samples mixed with 80 wt% carbonyl iron particles were prepared and evaluated with the developed magnet. Experimental results show that the mechanical property of the haptic unit can be modeled with the adjustable friction element. This property has a good advantage for the haptic unit.

A Method of Combination of Language Understanding with Touch-Based Communication Robots

Studies of robots which aim to entertain and to be conversational partners of the live-alone become very important. The robots are classified into DBC (Dialogue-Based Communication) robots and TBC (Touch-Based Communication) robots. DBC robots have an effect to be conversational partners. A typical application of TBC robots is Paro (a baby harp seal robot) which has an effect to entertain humans. The combination of DBC and TBC will be able to achieve both a conversational ability and an entertaining effect, but there is no study of combination of DBC and TBC. This paper proposes a response algorithm that can combine conversational information and touch information from humans. Criterions for estimation are defined as follows: FFV (Familiarity Factor Value), EFV (Enjoyment Factor Value), CR (Concentration Rate), ER (Expression Rate), and RR (Recognition Rate). FFV and EFV are total ratings for questionnaire related to familiarity and enjoyment factors, respectively. CR measures attention for humans. ER is the interest of communication with robots by representing Level 2 (laugh with opening one’s mouse), Level 1 (smile), and Level 0 (expressionless). RR is recognition ability for voices and touch actions. From the experiment for impressions of robot responses with 11 subjects, it turns out that the proposed method with combination of DBC and TBC is improved by 20.7 points in FFV, and by 12.6 points in EFV compared to only TBC. From the robot communication experiment, it turns out that the proposed method is improved by 8 points in the ER, by 5.3 points in the ER with Level 2, and by 24.5 points in the RR compared to only DBC.

Design and Evaluation of a User Interface for an Autonomous Agricultural Sprayer

This paper describes the design and evaluation of a user interface for a remotely supervised autonomous agricultural sprayer. The interface was designed to help the remote supervisor to instruct the autonomous sprayer to commence operation, monitor the status of the sprayer and its operation in the field, and intervene when needed (i.e., to stop or shut down). Design principles and guidelines were carefully selected to help develop a human-centered automation interface. Evaluation of the interface using a combination of heuristic, cognitive walkthrough, and user testing techniques revealed several strengths of the design as well as areas that needed further improvement. Overall, this paper provides guidelines that will assist other researchers to develop an ergonomic user interface for a fully autonomous agricultural machine.

IUID Method-Mix: Towards a Systematic Approach for Intercultural User Interface Design (IUID)

A method-mix for intercultural user interface design (IUID) is explained and exemplified by application examples based on a hybrid approach covering cultural contexts in human-computer interaction (HCI) design using a model of culturally influenced HCI. Cultural influence on HCI is described using cultural variables for user interface design. Assumptions and empirical results regarding the influence of culture on HCI, considering the path of the information processing and the interaction style between Chinese and German users are explained based on cultural models. Subsequent indicators represent the relationship between culture and HCI (culturally imprinted by the user). Correlations adopted theoretically between cultural dimensions and variables for HCI design were investigated. These correlations represent relevant constituents of a model for culturally influenced HCI. Considerations applying this model and evidence for the proper application of the IUID method-mix are presented elucidating why and how cultural aspects play a role in HCI design and usability/UX engineering. The IUID method-mix serves to inspire HCI engineers in the requirement analysis phase as well as HCI designers in the design phase. The readers are thereby sensitized to the challenges of intercultural usability/UX engineering and intercultural HCI design and will be equipped with methodological knowledge relevant to the derivation of design recommendations for user interface design for and in their desired cultural contexts. Finally, implications for practitioners are shown, including HCI style scores and practical design recommendations, to prognosticate the effort and the expenditures for considering the cultural context in IUID.

An environment-stable hydrogel with skin-matchable performance for human-machine interface

Ionic hydrogel-based sensors have shined a spotlight on wearable electronics.However,the sensitivity and reliability of hydrogel devices are significantly hampered by the weak adhesion of skin-sensor interface as well as inferior temperature tolerance.Here,inspired by the structure and composition of dermis,a novel skin-attachable and environment-stable hydrogel was designed by integrating collagen into the LiCl-containing chemically cross-linked polyacrylamide hydrogel.The hydrogel exhibited skin-like mechanical properties of low modulus,superior stretchability as well as excellent elasticity.Furthermore,the introduction of collagen endowed the hydrogel with robust and seamless interfaces with diverse materials,including the curved skin.As a result,the hydrogel is capable of serving as a human-machine interface for collecting reliable electrocardiography(ECG)signals and discerning various human motions,with high sensitivity(gauge factor=10.7),fast response,negligible hysteresis as well as extensive monitoring range.Notably,the hydrogel that can mimick the temperature-tolerant mechanism of most organisms possesses persistent stabilization of adhesive,conductive,sensory and mechanical performances at subzero or ambient conditions.The skin-inspired strategy paves an effective way for the design of multifunctional materials with potential applications in next-generation electronics.

Stretchable human-machine interface based on skin-conformal sEMG electrodes with self-similar geometry

Current stretchable surface electrodes have attracted increasing attention owing to their potential applications in biological signal monitoring, wearable human-machine interfaces（HMIs） and the Internet of Things. The paper proposed a stretchable HMI based on a surface electromyography（sEMG） electrode with a self-similar serpentine configuration. The sEMG electrode was transfer-printed onto the skin surface conformally to monitor biological signals, followed by signal classification and controlling of a mobile robot. Such electrodes can bear rather large deformation（such as 〉30%） under an appropriate areal coverage. The sEMG electrodes have been used to record electrophysiological signals from different parts of the body with sharp curvature, such as the index finger,back of the neck and face, and they exhibit great potential for HMI in the fields of robotics and healthcare. The electrodes placed onto the two wrists would generate two different signals with the fist clenched and loosened. It is classified to four kinds of signals with a combination of the gestures from the two wrists, that is, four control modes. Experiments demonstrated that the electrodes were successfully used as an HMI to control the motion of a mobile robot remotely.

Mouse simulation in human-machine interface using kinect and 3 gear systems

We never stop finding better ways to communicate with machines.To interact with computers we tried several ways,from punched tape and tape reader to QWERTY keyboards and command lines,from graphic user interface and mouse to multi-touch screens.The way we communicate with computers or devices are getting more direct and easier.In this paper,we give gesture mouse simulation in human–computer interface based on 3 Gear Systems using two Kinect sensors.The Kinect sensor is the perfect device to achieve dynamic gesture tracking and pose recognition.We hope the 3 Gear Systems can work as a mouse,to be more specific,use gestures to do click,double click and scroll.We use Coordinate Converting Matrix and Kalman Filter to reduce the shaking caused by errors and makes the interface create a better user experience.Finally the future of human-computer interface is discussed.

This article presents a new design of a distributed-parameter control system for human-machine perception interface,which is capable of precisely stimulating the neural systems with electromagnetic fields.By discretising the neural systems,a state-space representation of the electromagnetic stimulation is developed to facilitate the following design and analysis.A forward controller with multiple inputs and multiple outputs is consequently designed to estimate the excitation current.This novel approach enables the applications of the well-established control theory to analyse the system.The feasibility and accuracy of the control system are numerically illustrated and validated with the applications of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation(TMS)and retinal stimulation.The results indicate that the newly designed control system can not only generate electromagnetic stimulation with better attenuation and focality than the most widely used Figure-8 coil,but also transmit the patterns extracted from images with electromagnetic stimulations to human retinas.

Multimode human–machine interface using a single-channel and patterned triboelectric sensor

Triboelectric interfaces have already been extensively researched in the area of human–machine interaction owing to their selfsustainability,low cost,easy manufacturing,and diverse configurations.However,some limitations(e.g.,a large number of electrodes,multiple lines,and chunks)observed in previous works hinder the further development of human–machine interaction applications.Herein,a triboelectric encoding interface is proposed by designing the reverse polarity of the tribo-layers to encode the triboelectric output signals.Owing to the inversion of the tribo-layers and the number of strip electrodes,this encoding method can realize multipurpose interactive commands by using fewer electrodes and a simple structure only in one macroscopic triboelectric device,which greatly reduces the size of the device as well as the influence of external factors on the coded signal output.As a demonstration,a ring with the patterned triboelectric interface(15 mm×20 mm)achieves slide presentation and remote electric device control.In addition,the triboelectric sensor has good sensitivity(1.55 V/N)and durability(>30,000 cycles).This new encoding mode shows the high applicability of the operation mode in diversified interactive applications,which provides more design strategies for intelligent control.
