Mental health problems are on the rise globally and strain national health systems
worldwide. Mental disorders are closely associated with fear of stigma, structural barriers …

This paper explores the design space of wearable technology from the customisation point
of view. We identify emerging customisation practices and customisable attributes from …

We introduce Flexibles: 3D-printed flexible tangibles that are deformation-aware and
operate on capacitive touchscreens. Flexibles add expressive deformation input to …

We engineered a wearable microphone jammer that is capable of disabling microphones in
its user's surroundings, including hidden microphones. Our device is based on a recent …

Hugs are complex affective interactions that often include gestures like squeezes. We
present six new guidelines for designing interactive hugging robots, which we validate …

Current mobile devices commonly use vibration feedback to signal incoming notifications.
However, vibration feedback exhibits strong attention capture, limiting its use to short …

From zooming on smartphones and mid-air gestures to deformable user interfaces, thumb-
index pinching grips are used in many interaction techniques. However, there is still a lack of …

In this paper, we address the introduction of Virtual Reality (VR) tools to the education of
industrial design (ID) university students. We present three cases of how we have introduced …

Hover, touch, and force are promising input modalities that get increasingly integrated into
screens and everyday objects. However, these interactions are often limited to flat surfaces …

In this paper, we address shoes as a platform for wearable displays. To open research on
the area, we present a functional prototype of a display integrated to a sports shoe. The …
