CHI '26Vibrotactile Feedback & Skin Stimulation +2

Augmenting Imagery with Multimodal Vibrotactile Representations: Touch, Feel, and Hear

Digital images remain largely inaccessible to blind or visually impaired (BVI) people because alt-text rarely conveys how %objects For-TAPS - materials materials feel or sound. We augment material images with multimodal vibrotactile patterns and evaluate four generation pipelines. AP1: prompt with one-shot example,…

CHI '26Mental Health Apps & Online Support Communities +3

Navigating Postpartum: Exploring Lived and Professional Perspectives to Inform Supportive Technology Design

Childbirth is a significant life transition involving physical recovery, emotional adjustment, and caring for a newborn. This period exposes parents to postpartum challenges, including emotional difficulties, social isolation, and overwhelming adjustments that can lead to depression or anxiety. Despite the prevalenc…

CHI '26AI-Assisted Decision-Making & Automation +2

Balancing Automation and Discretion: How Decision Stakes and Human-AI Collaboration Affect Citizen Perceptions in Public Administration

The growing use of AI in public administration improves efficiency, yet its use in discretionary decisions raises concerns about fairness and legitimacy. While prior research examined decision stakes and Human–AI decision-making configurations separately, their combined effect on citizens’ perceptions of fairness and…

CHI '26Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) +2

Grand Challenges around Designing Computers’ Control Over Our Bodies

Advances in emerging technologies, such as on-body mechanical actuators and electrical muscle stimulation, have allowed computers to take control over our bodies. This presents opportunities as well as challenges, raising fundamental questions about agency and the role of our body when interacting with technology. To…

CHI '26Haptic Wearables +2

Inside the Mirror, Wearing My own Body: Why UX Should Engage Monstrous Experiences

While engaging with four different wearable systems, we unexpectedly encountered felt experiences that resisted articulation and defied conventional classification. They were neither pleasant nor unpleasant, and yet both; neither comforting nor frightening, and yet both; neither recognizably human-like nor machinic, a…

AUTO_UI '25Teleoperated Driving +2

SPAT: Situational Prosocial and Aggressive Behavior Perception in Traffic Scale

Automated vehicles (AVs) reached technological maturity and will soon arrive on streets as traffic participants. Human traffic participants such as drivers, pedestrians, or cyclists will be increasingly confronted with the presence of AVs within their environment, not necessarily knowing or understanding what to expec…

MOBILEHCI '25Smart Home Interaction Design +1

Enhancing Smart Home User Experience: A Study of Everyday Objects for Smart Home Control

Current smart home technologies rely on touchscreens and voice assistants for interaction. These interfaces lack tactile engagement and fail to support users' daily routines and preferences, leading to poor user experiences (UX). Designing tangible user interfaces (TUIs) that align with user preferences can improve…

CHI '25Mental Health Apps & Online Support Communities +1

The Dual Model for Everyday Stress Technology: Understanding the Lived Experience of Data-Driven Stress

Technology plays a dual role in our daily lives, both contributing to heightened stress levels and offering potential solutions for stress management. However, the lived experience of stress in everyday contexts remains underexplored, leaving a critical gap in our understanding of how stress manifests and how technolo…

CHI '24Cognitive Impairment & Neurodiversity (Autism, ADHD, Dyslexia) +2

My Data, My Choice, My Insights: Women's Requirements when Collecting, Interpreting and Sharing their Personal Health Data

HCI research has been instrumental in enabling self-directed health tracking. Despite a plethora of devices and data, however, users' views of their own health are often fragmented. This is a problem for women's health, where physical and mental observations and symptoms are strongly intertwined. An integrated view th…

CHI '24AI Ethics, Fairness & Accountability +2

Why the Fine, AI? The Effect of Explanation Level on Citizens' Fairness Perception of AI-based Discretion in Public Administrations

The integration of Artificial Intelligence into decision-making processes within public administration extends to AI-systems that exercise administrative discretion. This raises fairness concerns among citizens, possibly leading to AI-systems abandonment. Uncertainty persists regarding explanation elements impacting c…
