I don't know how to explain this but I'll try my best:
Categorized/Binary controls: Things like clapping to turn on/off lights, or a hand gesture to navigate to home in a car.
Continuous controls: Changing temperature, modulating a note (Theramin), controlling a quadcopter as in this article.
Binary/categorized controls are kind of ok. Hand gestures for continuous controls are not ok.
- yorwba 9y agoI remember reading about some Google project that used haptic self-feedback for continuous gesture controls: To turn a virtual knob you'd rub your fingertips in a turning motion and to move a slider you'd slide your thumb along your index finger. I think that's a pretty clever solution; unfortunately I can't find the blog post right now. EDIT: They call it Project Soli: https://atap.google.com/soli/ https://atap.google.com/soli/
