Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017009707A1] A methods and apparatus of hand based "hybrid" input (human computer interface) allowing compact, efficient, even single-handed operable symbol and character input methods that do not rely on vision and utilizing skills user already have. Also about a new kind of dynamic/shape-transformable human-machine interaction means (methods and apparatus/controllers) ~ Variable Geometry hand-based controller, for providing on-demand, (Ergonometric and) change-able (transformable) interface for user's hand to interact with, thus provide more flexible/versatile way of interaction and possibly simulating (including the user experience) a variety of (hand-based) controllers/devices, so that user can have more than one way of interaction without need to switch to other controllers.
