In previous researches, digital images are rarely integrating with interactive design through objects by touch-grip. David Merrill et al. from MIT Media Laboratory developed “Sifteo cube” which is one of the most famous “tangible user interface” (TUI). Sifteo cubes contain many special physical touch grip sense perception and information communication functions. We will use Sifteo cubes to develop two innovative interaction design in order to achieve tangible user interface applications. About the first design “Spelling Monster”, we developed a system integrating augmented reality (AR) and interactive table technology and applied Sifteo cubes as the marker of AR to detect the cubes'' location, and we used the system to design a joyful interactive English spelling game. In the game, users can pick up the cubes by hands for the English alphabetical spelling and have fun interaction with the images from the table. We used a cute cartoon style animal fables to design animations. The game is a new interactive English vocabulary learning which achieves the entertaining purpose. About the second design “Sifteo Button”, we transformed Sifteo cubes as a new touch-grip button for playing video. It solved the shortcomings of the general standard button which can not be changed their functions and positions. By the special functions of sifting, sorting, tilting, shaking, pressing and adjacency of Sifteo cubes. We created the different sort command and control movie playback, such as play, stop, pause ... and so on. We use “Digital Celebrating the Matsu Festival” of the famous artist Chin-Hsin Lin to be the demonstration content. Besides the cubes have the special button functions designed, when six cubes are put in a row, the system will download the video into cubes and play simultaneously. Besides, this thesis will discuss the relevant work and discuss how to implement two design by Sifteo cubes and finally will have the conclusion discussion.
