ABSTRACT
In this paper, we address handbags as interactive mobile devices. As handbags are typical accessories carried practically by half of the adult population when on the move, they offer an interesting and widely distributed platform for mobile computing. As handbags are visible items representing the user's style, and form part of the user's overall outfit, aesthetics form an important part of their design. In this paper, we report ideas gathered from 20 participants that participated to a user study on the topic.

Smart Handbag for Remembering Keys
Mindtrek '18: Proceedings of the 22nd International Academic Mindtrek ConferenceIn this paper, we present a design and prototype of a smart handbag, which detects the presence of the user's keys in the bag and shows it with an ambient display, consisting of LEDs embedded to the design. The handbag prototype is an example of a smart ...
Smart Handbag as a Wearable Public Display - Exploring Concepts and User Perceptions
AH '16: Proceedings of the 7th Augmented Human International Conference 2016Wearable computing has so far focused mostly on systems employing small displays, or no displays at all. In contrast, we explore the possibilities of a smart handbag that functions as a wearable public display, focusing on user perceptions of different ...
Exploring smart handbag concepts through co-design
MUM '16: Proceedings of the 15th International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous MultimediaIn this paper, we explore design preferences and possibilities for smart handbags from the user perspective. We present designs and findings derived through a co-design process, which consisted of two studies; first with individual drawing based ...
