Ken Hinckley

Author: Ken Hinckley

Ph.D

Ken Hinckley is a research scientist at Microsoft Research. He has published widely on input devices and interaction techniques. The basic thrust of his research is to enhance the input vocabulary that one can express using common computational devices and user interfaces.His research area include:
- Input devices & interaction techniques: touch-sensing input devices, two-handed input, pen and gesture input, tactile I/O, sensing technologies, ...
- Mobile devices & interaction
- Formal experimental studies of input techniques and human abilities
- All other topics relevant to human-computer interaction
