Article
This paper presents the design and evaluation of the multipurpose platform for domestic ambient media research and applications through an improved method called wizard-of-oz. Inspired by the increasing requirements for the reuse of valuable development work in intelligent ambient media system and service design, we propose a different approach to...
Conference Paper
This research explores how digital media could be used to enhance engagement between an audience and a presenter, orator, or lecturer. Our aim is to think creatively about what a presentation could become and how the use of digital media technologies could form an intrinsic part of the presenter/audience experience. To help anchor this concept, we...

In this paper we consider how 'smartness' should be designed to enhance the communication in the home. We aim to evoke a rethinking of how smart technologies should be embedded in perspectives of user needs. Through a set of experimental studies, which employ a Wizard of Oz (WoZ) as design and evaluation methodology, we observe and analyse user int...

This paper investigates how a Wizard of Oz (WoZ) control panel could be developed to improve 'between-subject' consistency. To achieve this we conducted a comparative study of two control panels. Both control panels were used by the experimenter to ostensibly facilitate the design and evaluation of a novel domestic planning application allowing mem...

In this paper we propose an approach to visualise the domestic communication patterns by designing domestic interfaces. We conduct a review of literatures on the development of interaction interfaces including the design and evaluation methods, the communication patterns in the home, and the design methods for domestic infrastructures. Following an...

Full-text available
In this paper, we present novel development of domestic central heating control panel from conventional wall-mounted device to ambient media. We perform cycles of designs and evaluations in order to refine the understanding of the new media. Based on that we investigate potential methodologies to develop conventional devices into ambient media and,...
Article
This paper presents suggestions for a more pragmatic approach to the design of emerging and future domestic communication technologies, particularly technologies destined for the home that may be deemed 'ubiquitous'. This is achieved through two critical reviews of a small number of social studies related to the design and use of existing and emerg...
Article
Full-text available
This paper explores the adoption process of user-participative interaction design tools in manufacturing organisations in which they have not historically been used in the development of consumer product interfaces. Three case studies are presented describing the adoption of user-participative design tools at different stages of implementation. The...
Article
A Doctoral Thesis. Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy of Loughborough University. This research began by addressing the question: can effective interface design guidelines be produced for use in the design of future consumer product technologies (CPT)? A literature review explored published st...
Article
Communication between designers and human factors specialists needs to be improved. Over the past few years we have been conducting a range of studies to explore and identify how to improve this communication deficit. A participatory design tool-set was designed to encourage designers and potential end-users of future interactive products to commun...
Conference Paper
At the Institute of Design, University of Teesside, a research programme has recently begun examining the ergonomics issues of advanced interfaces which include intelligent and adaptive interfaces for domestic and consumer products. One aim of the project is to develop simulations and prototypes of adaptive and intelligent interfaces and to conduct...
Article
This is a conference paper. The Guideline project is concerned with the interface and interaction issues of consumer product control and display devices. The main objective of the project is to produce interface design guidelines for emerging or advanced consumer based products for interaction and product designers. The information for the guidelin...
