  • Designing Multi-Sensory Displays for Abstract Data
    Designing Multi-sensory Displays for Abstract Data. Keith V. Nesbitt BMath (Newcastle), MComp (Newcastle), Diploma in Technical Analysis (SIA) School of Information Technologies University of Sydney NSW 2006 Australia Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2003 Abstract 2 Abstract The rapid increase in available information has lead to many attempts to automatically locate patterns in large, abstract, multi-attributed information spaces. These techniques are often called data mining and have met with varying degrees of success. An alternative approach to automatic pattern detection is to keep the user in the exploration loop by developing displays for perceptual data mining. This approach allows a domain expert to search the data for useful relationships and can be effective when automated rules are hard to define. However, designing models of the abstract data and defining appropriate displays are critical tasks in building a useful system. Designing displays of abstract data is especially difficult when multi-sensory interaction is considered. New technology, such as Virtual Environments, enables such multi-sensory interaction. For example, interfaces can be designed that immerse the user in a 3D space and provide visual, auditory and haptic (tactile) feedback. It has been a goal of Virtual Environments to use multi-sensory interaction in an attempt to increase the human-to-computer bandwidth. This approach may assist the user to understand large information spaces and find patterns in them. However, while the motivation is simple enough, actually designing appropriate mappings between the abstract information and the human sensory channels is quite difficult.

  • MULTI-SENSORY MATERIALITY Expanding Human Experience and Material Potentials with Advanced Hololens Technologies and Emotion
    MULTI-SENSORY MATERIALITY Expanding Human Experience and Material Potentials with Advanced HoloLens Technologies and Emotion Sensing Wearables MARCUS FARR1 and ANDREA MACRUZ2 1American University Sharjah / Tongji [email protected] 2Tongji University [email protected] Abstract. What is the current state of human/material perception relative to advanced architectural technology? What sensory experiences are possible, and how are they designed and deployed? What happens when advanced HoloLens technologies are used in conjunction with wearable emotion-sensing technologies to connect people with deeper sensory experiences relative to materiality and space? Does this offer a heightened pedagogical perspective when teaching architecture? This paper responds to these questions by expanding on and critiquing a small scale digitally augmented project created in an academic setting. The project focuses on relationships between technology and human sensory experience relative to specific augmented and sensorial engagements. It employs an overlap of HoloLens technology to make and enhance the design experience and wearable emotion sensors to evaluate the human experience. Keywords. Technology; Sensory; Materiality; Augmented. 1. Introduction The work explores what it means to design spaces with high degrees of sensory feedback and potential. It is made in tandem with technology using Rhino, Houdini, Fologram, and HoloLens as a primary decision-making tools relative to the creation of space. The Rhino plugin Fologram extends the experience by offering a user an additional sensory experience while wearing the HoloLens headset or by using the iPhone app. To monitor and evaluate the reaction to the projects, users also wear emotion-sensing UpMood bracelets that collect biodata from the user and result in 11 different emotional states, stress level and BPM, every 1.5 to 3 mins.

  • Digital Sensory Marketing: Integrating New Technologies Into Multisensory Online Experience ⁎ Olivia Petit A, Carlos Velasco B& Charles Spence C
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Journal of Interactive Marketing 45 (2019) 42–61 www.elsevier.com/locate/intmar Digital Sensory Marketing: Integrating New Technologies Into Multisensory Online Experience ⁎ Olivia Petit a, Carlos Velasco b& Charles Spence c a Department of Marketing, Kedge Business School, Domaine de Luminy, Rue Antoine Bourdelle, 13009 Marseille, France b Department of Marketing, BI Norwegian Business School, Nydalsveien 37, 0484 Oslo, Norway c Crossmodal Research Laboratory, Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Oxford, Tinbergen Building, 9 South Parks Road, Oxford OX1 3UD, UK Available online 17 December 2018 Abstract People are increasingly purchasing (e.g., food, clothes) and consuming (e.g., movies, courses) online where, traditionally, the sensory interaction has mostly been limited to visual, and to a lesser extent, auditory inputs. However, other sensory interfaces (e.g., including touch screens, together with a range of virtual, and augmented solutions) are increasingly being made available to people to interact online. Moreover, recent progress in the field of human–computer interaction means that online environments will likely engage more of the senses and become more connected with offline environments in the coming years. This expansion will likely coincide with an increasing engagement with the consumer's more emotional senses, namely touch/haptics, and possibly even olfaction. Forward-thinking marketers and researchers will therefore need to appropriate the latest tools/technologies in order to deliver richer online experiences for tomorrow's consumers. This review is designed to help the interested reader better understand what sensory marketing in a digital context can offer, thus hopefully opening the way for further research and development in the area.

  • Sensory Analysis As a Support for Strengthening the Meta-Design Phase
    SENSORY ANALYSIS AS A SUPPORT FOR STRENGTHENING THE META-DESIGN PHASE FRIENDLINESS, AFFORDANCE AND EXPERIENCE Doriana Dal Palù DAD – Department of Architecture and Design [email protected] Politecnico di Torino, Italy Beatrice Lerma DAD – Department of Architecture and Design [email protected] Politecnico di Torino, Italy ABSTRACT Everyday products are asked today to satisfy far more performances than in the past, starting from their ability to communicate on different levels, consciously or spontaneously, to the user. This attitude of the human centred project defines new requirements such as friendliness, affordance and a global satisfactory experience of the product itself, achievable by acting not just on the user experience, but also on the whole perception of the product, conveyed mainly by the five senses. This paper presents a novel design approach more attentive to the multisensory theme, providing it with the suggestion of a set of possible quali-quantitative tools able to support designers since the early phase of the good sensory design process. Furthermore, several innovative tools driven from the marketing research will be proposed for verifying the outputs of the design process. Finally several case studies of the possible achievements obtained with this approach in current researches in the field of multisensory product design adopting the disclosed tools will be presented. Keywords: meta-design, perception, sensory research tools 1 INTRODUCTION Products are no longer asked to perform only in function as they mostly did in the past; they are now expected indeed to consider contemporary social changes and deliver “soft” and un-visual performances, such as greater sensory expressivity and complex performances, in order to improve the quality of the user experience (Forlizzi, Disalvo & Hanington 2003; Ho & Siu 2012).

The scope of study included vast and systematic review of literature and few observation studies supplemented with survey of caregivers. A matrix with detailed design guidelines was the study outcome. It was concluded that designing for sensorily comfortable spaces could make the child more manageable and formulated guidelines could aid the design process. But the risk of child insisting on the same setting with prolonged exposure cannot be neglected. Future potential research areas involving design interventions for possibly enhancing neural connectivity in brain regions involved in sensory perception and integration, is also discussed.

  • Senses of Place: Architectural Design for the Multisensory Mind Charles Spence
    Spence Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications (2020) 5:46 Cognitive Research: Principles https://doi.org/10.1186/s41235-020-00243-4 and Implications REVIEW ARTICLE Open Access Senses of place: architectural design for the multisensory mind Charles Spence Abstract Traditionally, architectural practice has been dominated by the eye/sight. In recent decades, though, architects and designers have increasingly started to consider the other senses, namely sound, touch (including proprioception, kinesthesis, and the vestibular sense), smell, and on rare occasions, even taste in their work. As yet, there has been little recognition of the growing understanding of the multisensory nature of the human mind that has emerged from the field of cognitive neuroscience research. This review therefore provides a summary of the role of the human senses in architectural design practice, both when considered individually and, more importantly, when studied collectively. For it is only by recognizing the fundamentally multisensory nature of perception that one can really hope to explain a number of surprising crossmodal environmental or atmospheric interactions, such as between lighting colour and thermal comfort and between sound and the perceived safety of public space. At the same time, however, the contemporary focus on synaesthetic design needs to be reframed in terms of the crossmodal correspondences and multisensory integration, at least if the most is to be made of multisensory interactions and synergies that have been uncovered in recent years. Looking to the future, the hope is that architectural design practice will increasingly incorporate our growing understanding of the human senses, and how they influence one another. Such a multisensory approach will hopefully lead to the development of buildings and urban spaces that do a better job of promoting our social, cognitive, and emotional development, rather than hindering it, as has too often been the case previously.
