This paper presents CIDA, an input devices management platform that aims to abstract the type of the device used. The platform allows to change the interaction devices used by an application, as well as the way of interaction abstracting concepts such as connectivity, property mapping onto functionalities and driver utilization dependence. Input devices are accessed through plugins, which are responsible for dealing with their particular features. This way, the platform recognizes them as members of the supported device families. In order to highlight CIDA’s advantages and limitations, some case studies were performed for both development of new applications and adaptation of existing ones.
