AV-Play: Co-Designing VR Games to Study Audiovisual Integration in Children with ADHD

Processing speech in noisy environments is a core challenge for children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and few studies investigated evidence-based interventions. Disrupted visual attention and audiovisual integration are key contributors to these difficulties. Virtual reality (VR) games offer p…

Capability at a Glance: Design Guidelines for Intuitive Avatars Communicating Augmented Actions in Virtual Reality

Virtual Reality (VR) enables users to engage with capabilities beyond human limitations, but it is not always obvious how to trigger these capabilities. Taking the lens of Affordance, we believe avatar design is the key to solving this issue, which ideally should communicate its capabilities and how to activate them.…

“Poker with Play Money”: Exploring Psychotherapist Training with Virtual Patients

Role-play exercises are widely utilized for training across a variety of domains; however, they have many shortcomings, including low availability, resource intensity, and lack of diversity. Large language model-driven virtual agents offer a potential avenue to mitigate these limitations and offer lower-risk role-play…

Briteller: Shining a Light on AI Recommendations for Children

Understanding how AI recommendations work can help the younger generation become more informed and critical consumers of the vast amount of information they encounter daily. However, young learners with limited math and computing knowledge often find AI concepts too abstract. To address this, we developed Briteller,…

BallistoBud: Heart Rate Variability Monitoring using Earbud Accelerometry for Stress Assessment

This paper examines the potential of commercial earbuds for detecting physiological biomarkers like heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) for stress assessment. Using accelerometer (IMU) and photoplethysmography (PPG) data from earbuds, we compared these estimates with reference electrocardiogram (ECG) data…

A User-Centered Framework to Empower People with Parkinson's Disease

Rahman 等人提出以用户为中心的帕金森病赋能框架，通过以患者需求为导向的设计方法，提升辅助技术的实用性和患者生活品质。

Computational Trichromacy Reconstruction: Empowering the Color-Vision Deficient to Recognize Colors Using Augmented Reality

We propose an assistive technology that helps individuals with Color Vision Deficiencies (CVD) to recognize/name colors. A dichromat's color perception is a reduced two-dimensional (2D) subset of a normal trichromat's three dimensional color (3D) perception, leading to confusion when visual stimuli that appear ident…

CHI '24Generative AI (Text, Image, Music, Video) +2

Teachers, Parents, and Students' perspectives on Integrating Generative AI into Elementary Literacy Education

The viral launch of new generative AI (GAI) systems, such as ChatGPT and Text-to-Image (TTL) generators, sparked questions about how they can be effectively incorporated into writing education. However, it is still unclear how teachers, parents, and students perceive and suspect GAI systems in elementary school settin…

Getting on the Right Foot: Using Observational and Quantitative Methods to Evaluate Movement Disorders

Currently doctors rely on tools such as the Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UDPRS) and the Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) to make diagnoses for movement disorders based on clinical observations of a patient’s motor movement. Observation-based assessments however are inherently subje…

Auto-Gait: Automatic Ataxia Risk Assessment with Computer Vision from Gait Task Videos

Many patients with neurological disorders, such as Ataxia, do not have easy access to neurologists, -especially those living in remote localities and developing/underdeveloped countries. Ataxia is a degenerative disease of the nervous system that surfaces as difficulty with motor control, such as walking imbalance. Pr…
