ABSTRACT
The emergent application area of Ambient Intelligence provides new opportunities in the field of social interaction, and new means to conceive and design novel interface solutions for accessing social technologies. The maturity of technologies such as motion tracking, gesture recognition, facial expression and emotion recognition facilitate natural interactions with intelligent environments by providing technology newbies with more inclusive and universal interaction modalities. The workshop proposes the application of a Human Centered Design framework useful to conceive and design novel interface solutions for human activity sharing. Through an iterative process, participants will practice HCD methodologies and techniques and will define visions and concepts for our future life environment. From this workshop, participants will acquire multidisciplinary knowledge related to the Ambient Intelligence area, experiment an iterative process that can be adapted to other research topics, and structure concepts useful to start new investigations and developments.

Designing Visual Tools to Facilitate Human-Centered Design
AVI '20: Proceedings of the International Conference on Advanced Visual InterfacesHuman-Centred Design (HCD) relies on the use of many methods (e.g. interviews, observations) originating from other disciplines such as social sciences (e.g. ethnography). Such methods often rely on the use of visual tools (e.g. photographs and ...
User-centered design, activity-centered design, and goal-directed design: a review of three methods for designing web applications
SIGDOC '09: Proceedings of the 27th ACM international conference on Design of communicationWhen conducting research with users in order to design web applications, the practitioner has a variety of methods from which to choose. This paper examines three such methods'User-Centered Design (UCD), Goal-Directed Design (GDD), and Activity-Centered ...
Guidelines to Design Inclusive Ambient Intelligence Solutions for Human Activity Sharing
CISIS '12: Proceedings of the 2012 Sixth International Conference on Complex, Intelligent, and Software Intensive Systems (CISIS)The objective of this work is to suggest criteria and guidelines that can be used to design inclusive technological solutions to support human activity sharing in the context of Ambient Intelligence. These guidelines derive from the analysis of previous ...
