HeartbeatCam: Self-Triggered Photo Elicitation of Stress Events Using Wearable Sensing
Boyang Zhou, Zara Dana
People often recognize what triggered their stress only after the moment has passed. In therapy, this can become a recurring problem: clients are asked to remember what happened be…
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 Geißler, 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…
