Proverbial wallet: tangible interface for financial awareness

Published:16 February 2009Publication History

ABSTRACT

We propose a tangible interface concept for communicating personal financial information in an ambient and relevant manner. The concept is embodied in a set of wallets that provide the user with haptic feedback about personal financial metrics. We describe how such feedback can inform purchasing decisions and improve general financial awareness.
