JourneyVR: Designing for Continuous Workflow Experience in Virtual Reality

Managing multiple activities in virtual reality (VR) is often hindered by fragmented workflows and disruptive application switching. We present JourneyVR, a metaphorical interaction model designed for spatial and sequential workflows that reframes tasks as continuous journeys rather than isolated sessions. Users const…

MUST: Smartwatch-based Multimodal Framework for Predicting Driver State and Takeover Performance

Ensuring timely takeover in conditionally autonomous vehicles presents a significant challenge, especially when drivers are distracted by non-driving-related tasks or are in suboptimal emotional states. Existing driver monitoring systems struggle with a trade-off between practicality and reliability. Physiological sen…

Effects of Haptic Feedback on Gaming Experiences: A Case Study Comparing Players and Spectators in FPS Games

Haptic feedback has become a common feature in game experiences, yet little is known about how its effects differ between active players and passive spectators. This study investigated how haptic feedback influences user experience and technology acceptance in the context of first-person shooter (FPS) games, particula…

Your Call—Keep or Wrap: Examining the Impact of Self-regulatory Intervention on Short-form Video Consumption Behavior

Short-form videos have become one of the most addictive forms of digital media, keeping users endlessly scrolling with little self-regulation. Most existing interventions, screen-time limits or warning messages, are imposed from the outside and often lead to resistance or are simply ignored. To explore a more empoweri…

Quantifying Low-Level Motor Effects of Emotion: Validating Fitts’ Law in Affective Contexts

Emotional states influence a wide range of cognitive processes, such as attention, memory, and decision-making, and play an increasingly recognized role in human-computer interaction (HCI). Although most prior research has focused on high-level effects of emotion, the impact of incidental emotional states on fine-grai…

HaRing: A Haptic Ring Interface for One-Handed Interaction with High-Dimensional Spatial Information

Ring interfaces have gained attention in wearable technology for their lightweight and hands-free design. However, their compact form factor limits them to conveying simple information, such as direction or notification, through vibration, electrotactile, or force feedback. In this paper, we introduce HaRing, a novel…

ChairPose: Pressure-based Chair Morphology Grounded Sitting Pose Estimation through Simulation-Assisted Training

Prolonged seated activity is increasingly common in modern environments, raising concerns around musculoskeletal health, ergonomics, and the design of responsive interactive systems. Existing posture sensing methods such as vision-based or wearable approaches face limitations including occlusion, privacy concerns, use…

The Impact of Observer Presence on Trainees' Mental States and Performance in Remote Military Training with Virtual Humans in Mixed Reality Environment

Remote, vs. in situ, instruction may be regarded to decrease trainee engagement and concentration, potentially reducing training effectiveness. As such, local evaluative observers are often deployed to create the situated atmosphere. However, these observers can also have a negative effect on the trainees' mental stat…

MagPie: Extending a Smartphone’s Interaction Space via a Customizable Magnetic Back-of-Device Input Accessory

Back-of-Device (BoD) interfaces have emerged as a promising solution to free up screen real estate in smartphones by offloading interactions from the display to the back, thereby reducing reliance on on-screen interfaces. However, existing BoD solutions face limitations, such as requiring specialized hardware, consumi…

CHI '24Motion Sickness & Passenger Experience

The Effects of False but Stable Heart Rate Feedback on Cybersickness and User Experience in Virtual Reality

Virtual reality (VR) offers a compelling and immersive experience; however, cybersickness (or VR sickness) stands as a significant obstacle to its widespread adoption. When a user experiences cybersickness, one's physical condition deteriorates with various symptoms, often accompanied by an increased and destabilize…
