近年来，移动设备迅速渗透到我们的日常生活中。到目前为止，已经提到了移动设备的几个缺点，例如与笔记本电脑或桌面电脑相比，它们的计算能力有限、屏幕面积小等等。然而，通过充分利用移动设备最显著的特性，即移动性，我们可以探索新的设备用户界面的可能性。在本文中，我们使用pda，并提出了直观的信息传输技术，这是笔记本电脑或台式电脑无法实现的。通过使用名为toss - it的系统，用户可以通过“投掷”或“摇摆”动作将信息从PDA发送到其他电子设备，就像用户向他人投掷球或发牌一样。我们已经开发了一种电路板，设计用于连接到PDA和算法识别“投掷”和“摇摆”的动作。对toss - it的初步用户研究表明，它可以通过“投掷”或“摇摆”动作正确识别信息的接收者。我们的研究项目正在进行中，本文通过关注与HCI（人机交互）相关的问题来描述项目的现状。我们讨论了未来研究中需要研究的几个关键问题。
In recent years, mobile devices have rapidly penetrated into our daily lives. Several drawbacks of mobile devices have been mentioned so far, such as their limited computational capability, small screen real estate, and, so on, as compared with notebook or desktop computers. However, by fully utilizing the most notable feature of mobile devices, that is, mobility, we can explore possibilities for a new user interface of the devices. In this paper, we use PDAs and propose intuitive information transfer techniques for them, which could not be achieved with notebook or desktop computers. By using the system called Toss-It, a user can send information from the user's PDA to other electronic devices with a "toss" or "swing" action, as the user would toss a ball or deals cards to others. We have developed a circuit board designed to be attached to a PDA and algorithms for recognizing "toss" and "swing" actions. Preliminary user studies of Toss-It indicated that it could correctly identify receivers of information by "toss" or "swing" actions. Our research project is in progress, and this paper describes the current status of the project by focusing on issues related to HCI (human computer interaction). We discuss about several critical issues to be investigated in our future studies.
