What is Chameleon Devices: Investigating More Secure and Discreet Mobile Interactions via Active Camouflaging about?

Figure 1. Chameleons are well known for their ability to change the colour of their skin for survival and social signalling [10]. Sometimes this colour change is to indicate aggression towards other animals, or in response to temperature or mood (left) ; at other times, as in the centre left image shown here, chameleons can match the pattern of their surroundings near perfectly, perhaps to lessen the danger from predators. In this work, we explore how mobile devices might be able to perform the same feat. The centre right image, then, shows a phone placed normally on a table. At right: the same phone blended in to its surroundings, but still able to present social signals to its owner in a subtle manner.
