This study proposes an input device that speeds up input operations in e-sports by eliminating the key pressing process from the keyboard and a method for presenting the key input sensation using relative motion. The device determines the input intention based on the myoelectric potentials generated just before finger movement, and determines the key target based on the change in finger pressure during key presses. Therefore, the proposed device realizes input that does not require key presses. In order to present a key input feeling to the user, the key causes relative motion by pushing the finger during input. An input speed comparison experiment was conducted using a device that can acquire the input time of the proposed device and the input time by key press input through a single key press input. The rapid input system was shown to be 0.030 s faster than the existing key input system. We also created a device that uses a solenoid to provide force feedback to the pad of finger during input, and conducted an experiment to compare the input values of a pressure sensor type device with and without feedback. We showed that the force presentation system considering to the faster input speed improves the usability of the system.

摘要

This study proposes an input device that speeds up input operations in e-sports by eliminating the key pressing process from the keyboard and a method for presenting the key input sensation using relative motion. The device determines the input intention based on the myoelectric potentials generated just before finger movement, and determines the key target based on the change in finger pressure during key presses. Therefore, the proposed device realizes input that does not require key presses. In order to present a key input feeling to the user, the key causes relative motion by pushing the finger during input. An input speed comparison experiment was conducted using a device that can acquire the input time of the proposed device and the input time by key press input through a single key press input. The rapid input system was shown to be 0.030 s faster than the existing key input system. We also created a device that uses a solenoid to provide force feedback to the pad of finger during input, and conducted an experiment to compare the input values of a pressure sensor type device with and without feedback. We showed that the force presentation system considering to the faster input speed improves the usability of the system.
