Under the scenario of crossing selection, the target is selected by stroking through a boundary 'goal' instead of pointing inside a perimeter. We present empirical evidence to validate crossing performance for touch. Inspired by the experimental results, we then develop, evaluate and demonstrate a new unimanual multi-touch interaction space called 'pin-and-cross'. It combines one or more static touches ('pins') with another touch to cross a radial target, all performed with one hand. Our work serves to provide necessary support for the exploration and evaluation of more expressive multi-touch crossing techniques.entouchcrossinginteraction techniquemenususer interfacesTouch Crossing-Based Selection and the Pin-and-Cross TechniqueMaster ThesisComputer Science
