1 Introduction

As compatibillity between devices such as smartphones, tablets, PC

and TV increases, users may choose the optimal device to watch

various contents. Due to technologies such as HDMI mirroring,Wi-

Fi Display and DLNA, users can extend their viewing experience to

other devices. Mirroring a smartphone screen to a large TV screen

and playing multi-play phone games on a TV are some examples.

However, navigating between multiple devices is confusing and

***strating. It is difficult for users to complete complex interaction

on one device while viewing the same content. To use these devices

simultaneously, the user must go back and forth between devices.

Users must constantly verify that their input has been successfully

transferred to the connected device.

In this paper, we propose a device that enables users to focus on

the final screen : Golmoo. Traditionally, a golmoo is a small Korean

accessory used for stitching. It protects the fingers and also

prevents the needle from slipping while guiding the needle to stitch

in a straight line. Just as the Korean golmoo helps the seamstress

with the needle to produce a clean stitch, Golmoo will help the user

interact between multiple devices seamlessly. (Figure1:left,center)

2 Golmoo and user benefit

Golmoo is automatically turned on when the user puts it on

the thumb. When Golmoo is on, one only needs to follow the

quick ins***ctions to calibrate finger position. After calibration,

the distance, direction&acceleration is calculated using differential/

integral calculus. Finger position is synced with the cursor location

on the screen. This provides a visual indication of the location

of the fingers on the screen. As the finger hovers on the touch

screen, the location of the finger is shown transparently on the display

of the other device(Figure1:right,a). If the user presses the

touch screen, the location of the finger is shown solid on the display(

Figure1:right,b). This enables the user to pay attention to only

the final, viewing screen and not have to go back and forth between

devices.

Users can also experience realistic feedback through haptic feedback.

The haptic motor provides vibration/sound effect synced to

the interaction and context. We use Dual-mode Actuator as the

haptic motor that allows you to distinguish rendering bass and treble

signal, to emphasize the feeling of different sound effects. [Inwook

Hwang and Choi 2010]

3 Conclusion and Future work

We proposed a device named Golmoo that provides a seamless interaction

between various devices and contents. Golmoo helps you

identify the location of your fingers on a screen. This enables you

to focus fully on the screen. Golmoo also provides feedback that

brings realistic experiences and increases accuracy in difficult and

complex contents. In the future, we plan to extend the software to

be compatible with various other devices. In addition, we plan to

design a golmoo customized cradle for ease of storage and possible

recharging.
