Abstract

Home entertainment and interactive TV have known fundamental technological advances in the last years by incorporating developments from sensing, processing, and communications technologies. As such systems become more complex and present more options to their users, careful interaction design is needed in order to deliver the expected level of user experience. This tutorial explores novel interfaces for home entertainment scenarios, presents gesture acquisition and recognition techniques, and sets the focus on designing gestural interfaces for today's interactive smart TVs. Case studies will be discussed and a practical design session reusing the Wii Remote controller for designing interactive TV scenarios will be included.
