Dear colleagues,
The deadline of the “New trends in sports and HCI” workshop at MobileHCI’22
has been postponed to *June 9, 2022, AoE*.
CALL FOR PAPERS
The field of HCI for sports is evolving under the push of new technological
developments and worldwide natural events, such as the Covid-19 pandemic
and climate change. Recent technological advancements have widened the
possibilities of HCI in the sports domain by paving the way to augmented
humans, inbodied interactions, esports, new forms of sociality thanks to
virtual reality and the metaverse, and new ways for engaging the audience
thanks to AI. Whereas contextual factors, such as the Covid-19 pandemic and
climate change, seem to pull the sports trends in opposite directions: on
the one hand, they foster the indoorisation and individualization of
sports, as we can see by the spreading of home training systems such as
bike rollers and related apps; and, on the other hand, they encourage
practicing outdoor sports to take advantage of the ‘restorative power’ of
nature. With this workshop, we invite the HCI community to discuss the
current trends for portable technologies for sports and trace future
directions for HCI research in this field.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
- Possible topics for submissions may include (but are not limited to):
- Wearable/mobile technologies for sports
- Interactive systems for the indoorisation of outdoor sports
- Phenomenology of sports (how to report the sports experience)
- Augmented feedback for sports
- Augmented human capabilities in sports
- Immersive technologies for sports
- Exergames
- Gamification techniques for sports
- Superhuman sports
HOW TO APPLY?
We invite paper submissions (*minimum 12.500 characters long/about 5 pages*)
in the form of a research, reflection, pictorial, provocation, or design
fiction using the ACM SIGCHI template via Easy Chair. A program committee
will assess the submissions based on their potential to spark an
interesting discussion. Proceedings of the accepted submissions will be
published with CEUR and indexed in Scopus.
