Control of non-solid diffusers by electrostatic charging, in Proc. CHI'15.

We present a novel technique to control the shape and trajectory of non-solid diffusers used in mid-air displays such as fog and bubble displays. We propose a charging technique for polar aerosols, such as mist or fog, and a control technique using electric fields to regulate the shape and trajectory of such non-solid diffusers. We report experiments that allowed us to design a charging mechanism that produces charged fog aerosols with homogeneous electrical mobility. We illustrate the proposed technique by demonstrating how electric fields can be used to control the shape of a fog display and the trajectory of a bubble display, with high-speed and high-curvatures. This technique is simple to implement and opens interesting possibilities for developing new mid-air displays and interaction techniques.
