Beyond the Pocket: A Large-Scale International Study on User Preferences on Bodily Placements of Commercial Wearables
Joanna Sorysz, Lars Krupp, Dominique Nshimyimana +4
As wearables become smaller, more powerful, and increasingly embedded in everyday life, their integration into diverse user contexts raises important design challenges. Despite thi…
ChairPose: Pressure-based Chair Morphology Grounded Sitting Pose Estimation through Simulation-Assisted Training
Lala Shakti Swarup Ray, Vitor Fortes Rey, Bo Zhou +2
Prolonged seated activity is increasingly common in modern environments, raising concerns around musculoskeletal health, ergonomics, and the design of responsive interactive system…
W2W: A Simulated Exploration of IMU Placement Across the Human Body for Designing Smarter Wearable
Lala Shakti Swarup Ray, Bo Zhou, Paul Lukowicz
Inertial measurement units (IMUs) are central to wearable systems for activity recognition and pose estimation, but sensor placement remains largely guided by heuristics and conven…
iBreath: Usage Of Breathing Gestures as Means of Interactions
Mengxi Liu, Daniel GeiÃler, Deepika Gurung +5
Breathing is a spontaneous but controllable body function that can be used for hands-free interaction. Our work introduces "iBreath", a novel system to detect breathing gestures si…
LLMs Enable Context-Aware Augmented Reality in Surgical Navigation
Hamraz Javaheri, Omid Ghamarnejad, Paul Lukowicz +2
Wearable Augmented Reality (AR) technologies are gaining recognition for their potential to transform surgical navigation systems. As these technologies evolve, selecting the right…
Strategies and Challenges of Efficient White-Box Training for Human Activity Recognition
Daniel Geissler, Bo Zhou, Paul Lukowicz
Human Activity Recognition using time-series data from wearable sensors poses unique challenges due to complex temporal dependencies, sensor noise, placement variability, and diver…
