Title: | Making Smart Homes personal: Fabrication and Customisation of Home Interfaces | Authors: | TODI, Kashyap LUYTEN, Kris Vande Moere, Andrew |
Issue Date: | 2015 | Source: | Proceedings of CHI 2015 Workshop on Designing Smart Home Technologies that Evolve with Users – Smart for Life | Abstract: | In this position paper, we propose the use of personal fabrication and hyper-customisation of household physical interfaces as means to accommodate the current and future needs of inhabitants of smart homes. Allowing end-users to customise interactions to fit their needs ensures a strong personal connection between the smart home and the people who interact with it on a daily basis. Additionally, providing users the opportunity to fabricate low-cost hardware allows them to upgrade, modify, or redesign these interfaces as and when their needs evolve. We present the Design– Deploy–Dispose cycle as a model that allows end-users to design smart home interfaces according to their needs, and to revise them as these needs evolve. | Keywords: | personal fabrication; hyper-customisation; paper interfaces; smart homes; DIY; end-user development | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/18800 | ISBN: | 9781450331463 | Rights: | Copyright is held by the author/owner(s). | Category: | C1 | Type: | Proceedings Paper | Validations: | vabb 2018 |
