Abstract

This paper presents the "AirGrabber", a virtual keyboard suitable for wearable computers, by which a user can enter characters by "typing" in the air on a virtual keyboard. The AirGrabber detects keystrokes by monitoring the motions of the fingers and hand through a miniature camera and a tilt sensor on the user's wrist.
