Great write up about our LipIO (by Arata Jingu @artjng and Yudai Tanaka @Hoku5ai for ) at the @engadget website, which you can read here: engadget.com/lip-licking-contr

The key idea behind LipIO is to explore the lips as both Input and Output surfaces: touch input + for situations such as eyes, hands & ears-free! You can watch the video on their article and read the paper on our lab's website too. 🤩

new 👄 paper "LipIO: Enabling Lips as both Input and Output Surface". We engineered a device for extreme situations in which the user's eyes, hands & ears are engaged with another task. In LipIO the lips act as both input & output surfaces (touch input + electrotactile output). Video: youtube.com/watch?v=eooxckEgJZ and more details can be found at my lab's webpage or come to our CHI talk at this year's CHI conference (@ACM) .

This was done by my internship student…

"Usually, when you come to a museum, you can't touch these things."

@neuro_digital@twitter.com hope to change that with their haptic gloves

Hey there!

I am a researcher at HUX@ETSmtl where I am exploring how can be used to enhance voice interactions in general, but more specifically with smart assistants! I am particularly interested in anything related to perception... How can we assess or "measure" it, how can we bend it through cross-modal stimulation, how can we repectfully share our perception of things to foster healthier digital lives, etc.

Former PhD at SRL@McGill
