The Domestic Operating System: An Empirical Investigation of Digital Technology and Hidden Work in the Home

Digital technologies play a role in the cognitive work of managing households, yet much of this labour remains invisible, making it harder to share, delegate, or value. Existing tools support household tasks but focus on visible activities such as chores or planning, leaving unclear how hidden domestic labour is suppo…

Beyond Passive Monitoring: A Systematic Review of Tangible Interactive Devices that Support Home-Based Physical Activity

Encouraging home-based physical activity (PA) is increasingly important for public health. While smartphones and smartwatches are widely adopted, passive monitoring fails to effectively promote home exercise, providing basic metrics without meaningful feedback or user-preference alignment. Recent technological advance…

SketchGPT: A Sketch-based Multimodal Interface for Application-Agnostic LLM Interaction

Human interaction with large language models (LLMs) is typically confined to text or image interfaces. Sketches offer a powerful medium for articulating creative ideas and user intentions, yet their potential remains underexplored. We propose SketchGPT, a novel interaction paradigm that integrates sketch and speech in…

'Socheton': A Culturally Appropriate AI Tool to Support Reproductive Well-being

Reproductive well-being education in the Global South is often challenged as many communities perceive many of its contents as misinformation, misconceptions, and language-inappropriate. Our ten-month-long ethnographic study (n=41) investigated the impact of sociocultural landscape, cultural beliefs, and healthcare in…

Exploring Opportunities for Flexible Wearables to Support Physical Training

Advances in digital fabrication with flexible and conductive materials are enabling new opportunities for customisable wearables that enhance physical training across various sports through on-body posture and movement monitoring. However, before developing new wearable devices, it is crucial to understand the unique…

Boss is aWare—Are you? Employee Comprehension and Legal Awareness of Workplace Monitoring

Bossware, software that monitors worker activity, is a common feature of workplaces. What do workers know about these tools and how they relate to their rights at work? We explored this question through two studies. Study 1 surveyed 100 workers to assess their understanding of work monitoring terminology. Participants…

Redistrict: Online Public Deliberation Support that Connects and Rebuilds Inclusive Communities

Public deliberations are often a staple ingredient in community decision-making. However, traditional, timeconstrained, in-person debates can become highly polarized, eroding trust in authorities, and leaving the community divided. This is the case in redistricting deliberations for public school zoning. Seeking for a…

Understanding How Parents Deal With the Health Advice They Receive: A Qualitative Study and Implications for the Design of Message-based Health Dissemination Systems for Child Health

Message-based health information dissemination systems can potentially improve maternal and child health (MCH). By conveying health information to parents, SMS- and chatbot-based systems can support parents’ learning and empower them to make better health decisions for their children. However, there is limited design…
