Abstract

This paper describes some of the results of a probe study where members of three-generational families, where at least one person is geographically separated from the others, talk about their emotional experiences. The method for eliciting this information is briefly described along with some of the themes identified in a grounded theory analysis. These include: sharing the moment with pride; reassurance with regard to intergenerational obligations; comfort and consolation from yearning; and little time to give comfort to one another.

Tangible Affect: A Literature Review of Tangible Interactive Systems Addressing Human Core Affect, Emotions and Moods
DIS '24: Proceedings of the 2024 ACM Designing Interactive Systems Conference

Tangible user interfaces (TUIs) have been applied to assess, communicate, or regulate human core affect, emotions, or moods. Previous studies identified TUIs as an innovative way to serve people’s affective needs. This review examines the design and ...
Designing Expressive Lights and In-Situ Motions for Robots to Express Emotions
HAI '18: Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Human-Agent Interaction

In this paper, we explore how a utility robot might express emotions via expressive lights and in-situ motions. In most previous work, methods for either modality were investigated alone, leaving a huge potential to improve the expression of emotions by ...
