Abstract:
Mobile Human-Computer Interaction (Mobile HCI) is one of the most prevailing research areas across disciplines in recent years. A good research in the area requires not only understanding of users' information processing capability and their behaviors, but also familiarity of limitations and specifications of new innovative systems. Ideally, it is better to have a team with engineers, designers and social scientists working together for Mobile HCI studies. However, it is not an easy practice. The purpose of the presentation is to explore how to conduct multidisciplinary research for innovative mobile media and applications. The talk will present some of the presenter's published work to illustrate new mobile interaction services and applications to synergize engineering and behavioral science research for interactive system design such as mobile augmented reality games.
