- NordiCHI'14 conference attendees got hands-on experience with a number of great new interactive systems. Among the accepted poster, video, and demo submissions, we selected the following four prototypes to illustrate the high-quality design research displayed during the conference, which was held in Helsinki, Finland, October 26--30, 2014.

- This paper describes the vibrationnal feedback that was chosen for the guiding interaction part of the Lund Time Machine application. This tourist guide provides information on points of interests along a trail, and guides the user along it. The interface uses audio and tactile modalities to be accessible in situations where the visual channel is not available. To navigate to the next goal, the user scans around and feels the phone vibrating in the correct direction. The distance coding was embedded in the directional feedback by making the bursts more frequent when getting closer to the goal. The design was first evaluated in a controlled study and then validated as usable and non-obtrusive within an evaluation in the real context of use.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Today, the markets are populated with dozens of devices for dog activity tracking and monitoring. Our aim was to get detailed insights on how dog owners use these devices in their everyday life. Two studies, an interview study with Finnish dog owners (N=7) and an international online questionnaire (N=35) were done to capture the motivations for using dog activity trackers, their utility, user experience, gained insights, and impacts of use. The results showed that the use of the devices was motivated by monitoring health, behavior, learning related issues, and by balancing the amount of activity and rest to an appropriate level. The tracker inspired the owners to spend more time with the dog and to be more observant to his/her behavior. In return, this had the potential to improve their relationship. The owners wanted to keep their dog happy, and in turn, perceiving the dog as happy made the owners happy. Based on the results, we also briefly discuss development needs for dog activity monitoring solutions.
