Abstract

Mobile devices in everyday use such as smartphones and tablets contain sensors capable of detecting the motion of the device in terms of the angle and speed of rotation. While these have been exploited in a range of mobile apps, little attention has been paid to how these could be used to support interaction on the web. To enable researchers and developers to explore new forms of interaction based on motion sensors, we introduce a framework that supports the rapid development of web applications featuring motion-based interaction. Our Tilt-and-Tap framework focuses on the combination of tilting and tapping as a means of interaction since this allows users to easily interact without changing their hand position. We present the features of the framework as well as details of its implementation, and then demonstrate its flexibility and ease of use through some examples. We also discuss issues of performance and portability.
