WAHM - 4th workshop on ubiquitous technologies to augment the human mind: sharing experiences

Published: 11 September 2017 Publication History

Abstract

A recurring science fiction theme is the downloading of abilities from another human to one's own mind. Emerging technologies beyond simple audio/video recordings such as: 360° videos, tactile recorders and odor recorders are promising tools to enable skill transfer and empathy. However, the produced large datasets require new means for selecting, displaying and sharing experiences. This workshop will bring together researchers from a wide range of computing disciplines, such as virtual reality, mobile computing, privacy and security, social computing and ethnography, usability, and systems research. Furthermore, we will invite researchers from related disciplines such as psychology and economics. The objective is to discuss how these trends are changing our existing research on sharing experiences and knowledge to augment the human mind.
