Media Laboratory Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Department of Mathematics TEI ’25, March 04–07, 2025, Bordeaux / Talence, France We introduce Picto, a paired tangible interface that enables intimate dyads to co-create shared kinetic messages, fostering playful remote communication beyond temporal and physical constraints. Picto’s two modular units—a knob for rotational motion and a slider for linear motion—allow users to craft personalized motions and shapes symbolizing their significant other. Presence can be conveyed in real-time or asynchronously through record, replay, and share features. Picto empowers users to express abstract ideas through iconic gestures and non-verbal cues. Using a bistable composite tape-spring structure, we developed a novel mechanism for programming dynamic shape variations and motions. Picto’s control system records, stores, and shares motion-based interactions. A user study with intimate dyads evaluates Picto’s usability and its potential as a remote story-sharing platform and ambient presence media enhanced by metaphorical and beat gestures. The results highlight its potential to enrich and sustain intimate relationships, supporting social presence across distances. 2025-03-06T22:24:05Z 2025-03-06T22:24:05Z 2025-03-04 2025-03-05T15:54:19Z Article http://purl.org/eprint/type/ConferencePaper 979-8-4007-1197-8 https://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/158328 Choi, Kyung Yun, Jung, Taehee, Harasha, Noble and Ishii, Hiroshi. 2025.
