Modelling Visuo-Haptic Perception Change in Size Estimation Tasks
Jian Zhang, Wafa Johal, Jarrod Knibbe
Tangible interactions involve multiple sensory cues, enabling the accurate perception of object properties, such as size. Research has shown, however, that if we decouple these cue…
Grand Challenges around Designing Computers' Control Over Our Bodies
Florian 'Floyd' Mueller, Nadia Bianchi-Berthouze, Misha Sra +21
Advances in emerging technologies, such as on-body mechanical actuators and electrical muscle stimulation, have allowed computers to take control over our bodies. This presents opp…
I Can't Join, But I Will Send My Agent: Stand-in Enhanced Asynchronous Meetings (SEAM)
Zhongyi Bai, Jens Emil Grønbæk, Andrew Irlitti +2
We propose and explore the user experience of SEAM -- Stand-in Enhanced Asynchronous Meetings -- virtual reality meetings in which embodied virtual agents represent absent users. D…
Illusion Spaces in VR: The Interplay Between Size and Taper Angle Perception in Grasping
Jian Zhang, Wafa Johal, Jarrod Knibbe
Leveraging the integration of visual and proprioceptive cues, research has uncovered various perception thresholds in VR that can be exploited to support haptic feedback for graspi…
Raising Awareness of Location Information Vulnerabilities in Social Media Photos using LLMs
Ying Ma, Shiquan Zhang, Dongju Yang +3
Location privacy leaks can lead to unauthorised tracking, identity theft, and targeted attacks, compromising personal security and privacy. This study explores LLM-powered location…
Can you pass that tool?: Implications of Indirect Speech in Physical Human-Robot Collaboration
Yan Zhang, Tharaka Sachintha Ratnayake, Cherie Sew +3
Indirect speech acts (ISAs) are a natural pragmatic feature of human communication, allowing requests to be conveyed implicitly while maintaining subtlety and flexibility. Although…
