Abstract

Recently, many people have used Smartphones. The feature of Smartphones is that they are equipped with a mobile operating system (OS) for the control of sensors and modules. In this situation, we can connect external human interaction devices with the Smartphone. Our objective is to know how the external human interaction device affects to the OS.
