Our Workshop on User Experience for Multi-Device Ecosystems: Challenges and Opportunities was accepted to CHI 2021.
Smart devices have pervaded every aspect of humans’ daily lives, with an increasing number of personal devices such as smartphone, tablets, watches, smart speakers, and laptops.With this emerging diverse multi-device ecology of smart devices, it remains challenging for users to best utilize devices for different tasks, partially due to inconsistent UI styles, unclear coordination, varying fidelity, lack of understanding intent, or limited data sharing and security. Therefore, in this workshop we want to address challenges for redesigning the UX tailored to multi-device ecosystems, to enhance the user experience and leverage new opportunities for cross-device UX design.
This workshop aims to serve as a meeting point for worldwide researchers of multiple fields including HCI, ubiquitous computing, AI, physiology etc. to share new ideas and experiences, discuss about the challenges and explore future directions related to distributed UX.
