Abstract
Tangible user interface (TUI) is a new paradigm in the field of human-computer interaction. By coupling with physical objects and digital information, a TUI allows a user to perform natural actions such as grasping, moving, and assembling to manipulate digital information. With the latest approaches by integrating actuators, a TUI can also move actively or change shape by itself, thus enabling physical feedback. A TUI can be used in several application domains including information visualization, daily work, edutainment, and supporting creativity. This paper introduces the origins and development of tangible user interfaces, and discusses the theoretical frameworks, implementation technologies, application domains, and future research trends for TUIs.
