While shopping online for textiles from a mobile device, we face the perceptual gap between qualities we can perceive via the interface and those we sense when handling the real textile product. In this research I first investigate the qualities that people look for when interacting with textiles. Further, I examine the gestures people commonly use to handle fabrics, and I propose a way to imitate them on a mobile device. Finally, I prototype touch-screen interactive-video interfaces and assess best practice.
