In this thesis, we show that the conventional workflows for tracking objects in a warehouse can be enhanced by a new Augmented Reality (AR) service. In particular, we have designed a Unity implementation of an AR toolkit for the Microsoft HoloLens based on a “indoor greenhouse” …
This monograph presents innovative research regarding the body experience of human individuals who are using assistive robotic devices such as wearable robots or teleoperation systems. The focus is set on human-in-the-loop experiments that help to empirically evaluate how users …
The IFIP World Computer Congress (WCC) is one of the most important conferences in the area of computer science at the worldwide level and it has a federated structure, which takes into account the rapidly growing and expanding interests in this area. Informatics is rapidly chan…
This volume sets out the physical chemical concepts behind interface and colloid science.
This three volume set LNCS 12779, 12780, and 12781 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Design, User Experience, and Usability, DUXU 2021, held as part of the 23rd International Conference, HCI International 2021, which took place in July …
This book addresses current research trends and practice in industrial design. Going beyond the traditional design focus, it explores a range of recent and emerging aspects concerning service design, human-computer interaction and user experience design, sustainable design, virt…
This book reports on innovative system interfaces, with a special emphasis on their design, development and testing, and on improving the interaction and integration with the users. Focusing on the advantages and challenges of virtual, augmented and mixed reality systems, it des…
Design Research uses scientific methods to evaluate designs and build design theories. This book starts with recognizable questions in Design Research, such as A/B testing, how users learn to operate a device and why computer-generated faces are eerie. Using a broad range of exa…
This book presents cutting-edge research on innovative human systems integration and human-machine interaction, with an emphasis on artificial intelligence and automation, as well as computational modeling and simulation. It covers a wide range of applications in the area of des…
An improved method to evaluate Young's modulus of bacterial cellulose (BC) nanofibrils is presented. This estimation takes into account polarisation configurations, nanofibril orientation and tensile deformation axis direction. A range of 79 - 88 GPa has been obtained showing th…
The book shows how researchers, practitioners, and designers can improve user experiences with technology by understanding various user learning styles and characteristics when they interact with new and challenging applications and interfaces. Quality of experience in this new …
This thesis investigates the wetting of simple liquids using two density functional theory (DFT) models. The first model is a discrete lattice-gas model and the second a continuum DFT model of a hard-sphere reference system with an additional attractive perturbation. The wetting…
Nano Energy System Technology - ‘Nest’ - como projeto de design tem como objetivo uma interpretação meticulosa dos vários projetos de design da exposição Italy: The New Domestic Landscape de 1972, no MOMA em Nova Iorque. Esta exposição e a sua aproximação radical de pensamento o…
Static friction, a force fundamental to nearly every mechanical system from micro-machines to basketball shoes to tectonic plates, is in fact anything but static. In contrast to the simplified version taught in high-school, static friction is actually extremely dynamic, complex,…
This book highlights new trends and challenges in intelligent systems, which play an essential part in the digital transformation of many areas of science and practice. It includes papers offering a deeper understanding of the human-centred perspective on artificial intelligence…
