摘要
A human-powered user interface device sources its power from the physical effort required to operate it This paper describes a technique by which a geared DC motor and a simple circuit can be used to enable interaction-powered rotary input devices When turned, the circuit provides a temporary power source for an embedded device, and doubles as a sensor that provides information about the direction and rate of input As a proof of concept, we have developed a general-purpose wireless input device called the Peppermill and illustrate its capabilities by using it as a remote control for a multimedia-browsing application
