Designing Interactive Lighting workshop at DIS 2012
June 11th 2012, Newcastle, UK
in conjunction with the Designing Interactive Systems (DIS) Conference (http://www.dis2012.org/)
Introduction [back to top]
The Light Emitting Diode is a game changing technology. The rules for designing with light now have to be rewritten as this technology offers the designer radically new opportunities. LEDs can be applied in their thousands in luminaires or embedded in the architecture, and all could be controlled individually to obtain the perfect lighting design. These developments are certainly exciting but we need to understand how they will enhance people’s lives for the better. For this workshop, the aim is to explore new ways of interacting with light that suits our ideas for the future and exploits the possibilities of the LED.
The main goals of the workshop are:
- Identify key design challenges for new forms of interactive lighting systems in a multi-user context.
- Establish a link with existing interaction paradigms that can be (re-)used for control of future lighting systems.
- Idea generation session on UI design for interactive lighting
Topics of interest include:
- Interaction design for lighting systems
- Adaptation of existing UI paradigms to lighting systems
- User studies of interactions that are or can be applied to interactive lighting systems
- Design of smart lighting systems
- Evaluation methodologies relevant to multi-user interactive lighting systems
We invite researchers and designers interested in exploring user interaction for new forms of lighting systems.
