Interdisciplinary textile design research for material innovation: Synthesising design, science and industry collaboration (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Morgan, L. (2017). Interdisciplinary textile design research for material innovation: Synthesising design, science and industry collaboration.

Within the landscape of contemporary textile design research lies a rich site for collaboration, with the opportunity to draw on specialist knowledge across disciplines. This paper argues that Integrating textile design practice with specialist scien...

Generating 3D models of paintings through the combination of 2D, 3D and RTI data (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Aure Calvet, X., O'Dowd, P., & Padfield, J. (2017). Generating 3D models of paintings through the combination of 2D, 3D and RTI data. In J. Bowen, G. Diprose, & N. Lambert (Eds.),

The National Gallery in London has recently been testing the potential of 3D scanning technology to record and measure the surface of paintings. To view and interact with the high-resolution scans requires expensive computational hardware. The propos...

DeskWave: Desktop interactions using low-cost microwave Doppler arrays (2017)
Conference Proceeding
McIntosh, J., Fraser, M., Worgan, P., & Marzo, A. (2017). DeskWave: Desktop interactions using low-cost microwave Doppler arrays. In CHI EA '17: Proceedings of the 2017 CHI Conference Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems (1885-1892). https://doi.org/10.1145/3027063.3053152

Microwaves are a type of electromagnetic radiation that can pass through a variety of commonly found materials but partially reflect off human bodies. Microwaves are non-ionizing and at controlled levels do not pose a danger. A wave that is capable o... Read More about DeskWave: Desktop interactions using low-cost microwave Doppler arrays.

Inflashoe: A shape changing shoe to control underfoot pressure (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Baousi, K., Fear, N., Mourouzis, C., Stokes, B., Wood, H., Worgan, P., & Roudaut, A. (2017). Inflashoe: A shape changing shoe to control underfoot pressure. In CHI EA '17: Proceedings of the 2017 CHI Conference Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems (2381-2387). https://doi.org/10.1145/3027063.3053190

We present Inflashoe, an interactive shoe that uses a pneumatic system to change the inflation level within the sole. This allows the shoe to adapt its shape to different surfaces and users' foot morphology, or to alter users' gait. Inflashoe can not...
