Street Scenes: Public Appliances for GenAI Video in Informal Settlements

Generative AI is rapidly diffusing worldwide, yet access remains uneven. In informal settlements, barriers of cost, literacy and connectivity can exclude residents from AI-enabled self-expression. This paper presents Street Scenes: a public appliance for walk-up interaction with generative AI video in Dharavi, Mumbai.…

Cultivating Spoken Language Technologies for Unwritten Languages

We report on community-centered, collaborative research that weaves together HCI, natural language processing, linguistic, and design insights to develop spoken language technologies for unwritten languages. Across three visits to a Banjara farming community in India, we use participatory, technical, and creative meth…

Opportunities and Challenges of Automatic Speech Recognition Systems for Low-Resource Language Speakers

Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) researchers are turning their attention towards supporting low-resource languages, such as isiXhosa or Marathi, with only limited training resources. We report and reflect on collaborative research across ASR & HCI to situate ASR-enabled technologies to suit the needs and functions o…

Light in Light Out (LiLo) Displays: Harvesting and Manipulating Light to Provide Novel Forms of Communication

Many of us daily encounter shadow and reflected light patterns alongside macro-level changes in ambient light levels. These are caused by elements - opaque objects, glass, mirrors, even clouds - in our environment interfacing with sunlight or artificial indoor lighting. Inspired by these phenomena, we explored ways of…

Can't Touch This: Rethinking Public Technology in a COVID-19 Era

What do pedestrian crossings, ATMs, elevators and ticket machines have in common? These are just a few of the ubiquitous yet essential elements of public-space infrastructure that rely on physical buttons or touchscreens; common interactions that, until recently, were considered perfectly safe to perform. This work in…

PV-Pix: Slum Community Co-design of Self-Powered Deformable Smart Messaging Materials

Working with emergent users in two of Mumbai’s slums, we explored the value and uses of photovoltaic (PV) self-powering digital materials. Through a series of co-design workshops, a diary study and responses by artists and craftspeople, we developed the PV-Pix concept for inter-home connections. Each PV-Pix element co…

An Honest Conversation: Transparently Combining Machine and Human Speech Assistance in Public Spaces

There is widespread concern over the ways speech assistant providers currently use humans to listen to users' queries without their knowledge. We report two iterations of the TalkBack smart speaker, which transparently combines machine and human assistance. In the first, we created a prototype to investigate whether p…
