Ubiquitous & Personal
Computing Human Issues
I am
interested in the design of the user experience in the emerging area of
'ubiquitous' computing. My collaborative work in this area includes mobile
phone interaction (e.g., take a look at a phone demonstration related to our
Markov model paper), handheld and microscreen searching & browsing,
off-line/ online searching and large screen displays.
My current – and past -
project work in this area includes:
- Pedestrian
navigation using music
- Funky zoom - new ways of zooming and
panning on handhelds (esp., for maps, photos)
- Using text messaging in
lectures
- Laid-back
searching - an offline/online handheld Web search system
- Keyphrases
for small screen information access
- Small
screen search engine interfaces
- Home appliance control with Bluetooth
- Shareable large screen surfaces
- Auditory
interfaces in call centres
