Conference Proceeding
Worgan, P., & Fraser, M. (2017). CoilMove: An actuated to-body energy transfer system. In Proceedings of the 2017 Conference on Designing Interactive Systems - DIS '17 (791-795). https://doi.org/10.1145/3064663.3064693

Today, users are an integral part of charging their mobile and wearable computing devices, including smartphones, smartwatches, fitness trackers and music players. In this paper CoilMove is presented. CoilMove is an actuated wireless energy transfer... Read More about CoilMove: An actuated to-body energy transfer system.

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...
