De Ruyck, Olivia; Conradie, Peter; Van Hove, Stephanie; All, Anissa; Baccarne, Bastiaan; De Marez, Lieven; Saldien, Jelle – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2023
Interactions between humans and smart products (i.e. digital components integrated in physical Internet of Things devices) are becoming more complex and less visible. Yet designers lack tools to capture these interactions and incorporate them into their design. In this paper we present the Human-Computer-Context Interaction (HCCI) tool that helps…
