Sensei-POC

“定位”人机界面(使人们能够与非移动计算设备交互的外围设备，如台式机和笔记本电脑)的未来面临着一些新的问题。我们总是希望从定位计算机带来的更大屏幕和更强大的计算能力中受益。但定位人机界面的创新远远少于移动人机界面，我们所看到的创新具有严重的局限性。Sensei是物理界面设计中的一个新概念，是一种用于个人计算机的新型物理输入设备，它集成了触觉和空间数据，创造了一套新的用户交互可能性。该产品将融合我们音乐硬件Seboard产品背后的交互概念和Leap Motion-或Kinectstyle控制器的运动控制范式。ROLI是一家技术初创公司，最初专注于音乐硬件。我们正在进行Sensei项目，因为它直接与我们的主要使命保持一致，即通过直觉技术赋予人们能力。用更实际的话说，这意味着我们发明、设计和制造产品和技术--包括硬件和软件--其最终目标是增加人类创造力与数字前沿之间互动的带宽。我们专有的SEA接口技术是一种颠覆性的平台硬件创新，使高分辨率压力传感器能够嵌入任何形式的工厂中，并在广泛的行业中实现突破性的交互设备应用。Sensei是SEA接口的新应用，旨在改进现有桌面外围设备。Sensei的开发不仅发挥了Roli的优势，利用了我们的设计和工程专业知识，还帮助我们实现了我们的主要公司使命。该项目的目的是在9个月的过程中创建一个概念验证原型，展示Sensei概念的核心功能。

There are nascent problems that face the future of “located” HCI (peripherals devices thatenable people to interact with non-mobile computing devices, like desktops and laptops). Wewill always want to benefit from the larger screens and greater computing power that locatedcomputers enable. But located HCI has seen far less innovation than mobile HCI, and theinnovation we have seen has serious limitations.Sensei is a new concept in physical interface design, a new kind of physical input device forpersonal computers which integrates tactile and spatial data to create a new set of userinteraction possibilities. The product will be a fusion of the interaction concept behind ourmusic hardware Seaboard product and the motion-control paradigm of Leap Motion- or Kinectstylecontrollers.ROLI is a technology start-up whose initial focus has been music hardware. We areundertaking the Sensei project because it directly aligns with our primary mission, which is toempower people through intuitive technology. What this means in more practical terms is thatwe invent, design and build products and technologies – both hardware and software – whosestated aim is to increase the bandwidth of interaction between human ingenuity and the digitalfrontier. Our proprietary SEA Interface technology is a disruptive platform hardwareinnovation that enables high resolution pressure sensors to be embedded in any form factorand enables groundbreaking interactive device applications in a wide range of industries.Sensei is a novel application of the SEA Interface that is intended as an improvement overexisting desktop peripherals. Development of Sensei not only plays to ROLI’s strengths,utilising our design and engineering expertise, it also helps us fulfil our primary companymission.The purpose of this project is to create a proof-of-concept prototype demonstrating the corefunctionality of the Sensei concept over the course of 9 months.
