Urban Interaction: Notes on Human-Computer Interaction in Cities - Stanford Seminar

Explore the complexities of urban interaction and human-computer interaction (HCI) in this Stanford seminar featuring Wendy Ju from Cornell Tech. Delve into three ongoing research initiatives that tackle the challenges of technology adoption in real-world urban environments: Trashbots in the City, Urban Fingerprinting, and Communal eXtended Reality. Gain insights into the cultural, scale, and engagement aspects of urban interaction that demand innovative approaches from HCI researchers and practitioners. Learn how HCI perspectives contribute to the crowded urban landscape and discover new methods for early-stage prototyping of automated systems. Understand the importance of these techniques in areas such as human-robot interaction and automated vehicle interfaces for developing safer and more socially appropriate systems.
