Immersive media is becoming increasingly common in day-to-day scenarios: from extended reality systems to multimodal interfaces. Such ubiquity opens an opportunity for building more inclusive environments for users with disabilities (either permanent, temporary, or situational) by introducing immersive and multimodal elements into existing applications, or designing and creating immersive applications with inclusivity in mind.
This ACM CHI 2021 Online Workshop on Design and Creation of Inclusive User Interactions Through Immersive Media invites its participants to open a discussion on intersections between the fields of immersive media, accessibility, and human-computer interaction, outline the key current and future problems of immersive inclusive design, define a set of methodologies for design and evaluation of immersive systems from inclusivity, and create a bilateral value exchange dialogue between researchers and practitioners in academia and industry.
Submission Guidelines
We welcome all interested applicants, including students and professionals with experiences in such fields as Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), social computing, UI/UX design and research, accessibility, immersive media, Augmented, Virtual, and Extended Reality (AR / VR / XR), Artificial Intelligence, and Augmented Human. We intend this workshop to be engaging and informative to all participants regardless of level of familiarity with the workshop topic.
Please note that due to ACM CHI 2021 virtual format, this workshop will be also conducted online. To participate in the workshop, we ask applicants to submit 2-4 page (including references) position papers in ACM Master Article (single column) format, on the topics that include, but are not limited to:
- Immersive media and inclusive design
- Accessibility
- Assistive augmentation
- Augmented, Virtual, Mixed, and Extended Reality (AR / VR / MR / XR)
- Human-Computer Interaction
- Human-Computer Integration (HInt)
- Augmented Human
- HCI and Artificial Intelligence
Submissions deadline is February 21st 2021 Anywhere On Earth (AoE), acceptance notifications will be sent out on March 5th 2021. Workshop will happen on May 8th 2021. At least one of the accepted authors is expected to attend both workshop and the conference.
