The continued proliferation of computing devices comes with an ever-increasing energy requirement, both during production and use. As awareness of the global climate emergency increases, self-powered and sustainable (Self-Sustainable) interactive devices are likely to play a valuable role. In this workshop we bring together researchers and practitioners from design, computer science, materials science, engineering and manufacturing industries working on this new area of endeavour. The workshop will provide a platform for participants to review and discuss challenges and opportunities associated with self-powered and sustainable interfaces and interactions, develop a design space and identify opportunities for future research.
Submission Guidelines
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference. The following paper categories are welcome:
- Full papers (between 4-8 pages in CHI Extended Abstracts Format)
- Demos (2 pages in CHI Extended Abstracts Format)
Submissions will be reviewed by the workshop organisers and by selected reviewers. Accepted papers will then be hosted on the workshop web page. At least one author must attend the workshop and all participants are required to register for both the workshop and at least one day of the conference.
List of Topics
The topics of interest for the workshop include, but are not limited to the following:
- Methods, materials, and technologies for self-powered interfaces and interactions;
- Novel interfaces and interaction styles afforded by energy harvesting and low-power materials;
- Scenarios and contexts of use for sustainable interfaces and interactions
