Jamming user interfaces: Programmable particle stiffness and sensing for malleable and shape-changing devices

Malleable and organic user interfaces have the potential to enable radically new forms of interactions and expressiveness through flexible, free-form and computationally controlled shapes and displays. This work, specifically focuses on particle jamming as a simple, effective method for flexible, sh...
