目前，虚拟（即触摸屏）控制是动态的，但缺乏物理控制的有利触觉反馈。类似地，设备也可能具有专用的物理控制，但它们缺乏适应不同上下文和应用程序的灵活性。特别是在移动和可穿戴设备上，空间的限制进一步限制了我们的输入和输出能力。我们建议利用移动设备边缘的可重构触觉元素来实现动态物理控制和反馈。这些触觉元件可以用于物理触摸输入和输出，并且可以根据应用重新定位，既可以在设备的边缘，也可以隐藏在设备内部。我们提出了shiftIO，这是这样一个系统的两个实现，它使用磁性运动来驱动移动设备边缘周围的物理控制。一个版本使用pcb制造的电磁线圈，另一个使用可切换的永久磁铁。我们对这些原型进行了技术评估，并比较了它们在各种应用中的优势。最后，我们演示了几个利用shiftIO创建新颖移动交互的移动应用程序。
Currently, virtual (i.e. touchscreen) controls are dynamic, but lack the advantageous tactile feedback of physical controls. Similarly, devices may also have dedicated physical controls, but they lack the flexibility to adapt for different contexts and applications. On mobile and wearable devices in particular, space constraints further limit our input and output capabilities. We propose utilizing reconfigurable tactile elements around the edge of a mobile device to enable dynamic physical controls and feedback. These tactile elements can be used for physical touch input and output, and can reposition according to the application both around the edge of and hidden within the device. We present shiftIO, two implementations of such a system which actuate physical controls around the edge of a mobile device using magnetic locomotion. One version utilizes PCB-manufactured electromagnetic coils, and the other uses switchable permanent magnets. We perform a technical evaluation of these prototypes and compare their advantages in various applications. Finally, we demonstrate several mobile applications which leverage shiftIO to create novel mobile interactions.
