Abstract

In this position paper, we discuss the problem space and related design challenges of using input devices in the intravehicular micro-gravity environment. First, using typing experience as an example, we present a concept of adapting the shape of current devices to give them more freedom by removing the need of anchoring. Consequently, we then address the unwanted floating devices from the perspective of connectors and elastic interactions as input.
