Abstract
A controller is formed as an array of transmitting antennas and receiving antennas that are placed on the skin of a user so that the underlying movement of the user's skin can be measured by the interaction of the transmitting antennas and the receiving antennas. In an embodiment, the transmitting antennas and receiving antennas are located in an area proximate to the wrist. The movement of the transmitting antennas and subsequent measurement of signals received by receiving antennas are used in order to determine position and pose of the hand and its digits.
