An Exploration of Pen Rolling for Pen-based Interaction.

We explore pen rolling as a supporting input modality for pen-based interaction. We have identified two important parameters: a) what separate intentional pen rolling for the purpose of interaction from incidental pen rolling caused by regular writing and drawing, and b) the range within which accurate and timely intentional pen rolling interactions can occur. We investigate the design space of rolling-based interaction techniques, through a number of scenarios where pen rolling interactions can be useful.
