SIAT researchers present studies at top HCI publication venue

Audience at the CHI 2024 conference in Hawai'i.

From May 11th to May 16th, many members of the SIAT research community presented their new papers and innovative research at the Association for Computing Machinery’s (ACM) CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, the premier international conference on human-computer interaction (HCI).

The annual CHI Conference, which took place this year in Honolulu, Hawai'i, is the top venue for publication in the field of HCI and the SIAT community was well represented at the conference. Over thirty SIAT faculty members, postdoctoral fellows, and graduate students presented ten papers and three late-breaking works.

Additionally, several researchers also presented papers at CHI workshops throughout the week, including the Generative AI and HCI workshop and the EmpathiCH: Scrutinizing Empathy-Centric Design Beyond the Individual workshop.

The work presented by SIAT researchers was diverse, multidisciplinary, and featured a wide-range of research focused on designing, studying, and improving computer systems and technologies that people interact with.

Studies presented at the conference included research assessing the design of a multimedia-enabled 911 app to a paper that explores designing sound that supports personal and social experiences of reminiscence for people with blindness.

Learn more about the papers and works presented by SIAT researchers at the conference through the comprehensive list below.

Researchers: William Odom, Jordan White, Samuel Barnett, Nico Brand, Henry Lin, MinYoung Yoo, Tal Amram.
