Research subject Human–Computer Interaction
Personal computers, mobile phones, smartwatches and voice-controlled speakers. Digital technologies are present in almost every aspect of daily life. As computers continue to develop and human demands change, we need to work on new ways to interact.
What implications do digital technologies have for how people interact with one another – and for how society functions? What is user-friendly design? And what does it take to design with, and for, communities? These topics are explored in Human–Computer Interaction.
We study how humans and computers interact, and also how computers shape interactions between people. We consider the implications of digital technologies for social and economic interactions, and explore their role in larger societal issues such as environmental sustainability and labor arrangements.
Ongoing research projects involve autonomous vehicles, aerial drones, economic and social exchange on online platforms, teaching robots about human communication, and technology-enhanced waste management.
