Abstract

This paper describes active tangible interactions on a flat panel display using plain paper sheets as tangible media. A prototype system employs transparent planar electrostatic actuators that cover the surface of a flat-panel display to realize co-located tangible and visual interactions. In a demonstration program, users can interact with animated computer graphics through plain paper sheets actuated by the electrostatic actuators.
