  • Beyond Conventional Health Technologies: Investigating Design Opportunities for Improving Self-management in People with Multiple Sclerosis

    Trisha Dani, Anindya Das Antar, Anna Kratz, Nikola Banovic · 2026 · ACM Transactions on Computing in Healthcare

    This qualitative HCI study investigates how people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) use existing health technologies to manage their symptoms and condition in daily life outside clinical settings. MS is a chronic neurological condition causing fluctuating and often invisible…

  • ExNovo: A user interface that supports novices without encumbering experts

    Mark Blair, Amanda Klassen, Justin O'Camb, Cal Woodruff, Rollin Poe, Christine Chuong, Robin Barrett · 2026 · ACM Games

    ExNovo is a novel hierarchical tree menu interface designed to bridge the long-standing divide between graphical user interfaces (GUIs) and keyboard hotkeys. Traditional GUIs scaffold novice users by making command options visible, but their reliance on precise mouse targeting…

  • Expanding Perspectives to Improve Access to Visual Archives through Multimodal Image Enrichment

    Karina Rodriguez Echavarria, Myrsini Samaroudi · 2026 · ACM Journal on Computing and Cultural Heritage

    This paper addresses a pervasive challenge in the Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums (GLAM) sector: large-scale visual collections that have been digitised but remain undiscoverable because they lack descriptive metadata. The authors, from the University of Brighton,…

  • Beyond Technical Metrics: Understanding the Gap Between AI Performance and Deaf User Experience in Chinese Natural Sign Language Generation

    Yang Liu, Hui Kang, Yurun He, Jiahui Li · 2026 · Proceedings of the 2026 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI '26)

    This CHI 2026 paper investigates the disconnect between technical performance metrics and actual Deaf user experience in AI-generated Chinese Natural Sign Language (CNSL). The authors argue that existing sign language generation research, dominated by hearing researchers, relies…

  • When Audio Is Enough: Design-Tradeoffs in Multi-Story MR Navigation

    Bilgehan Cagiltay, Selim Balcisoy · 2026 · Proceedings of the 2026 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI '26)

    This CHI '26 exploratory study asks when an augmented-reality navigation aid can rely on audio alone. The authors argue that visual-first MR interfaces impose extra cognitive load and attention tunneling in high-stakes, cognitively demanding settings (e.g., first responders,…

  • Beyond Additive Design: An Empirical Taxonomy of Multimodal STEM Accessibility Systems

    Madjid Sadallah, Benoit Encelle · 2026 · Extended Abstracts of the 2026 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI EA '26)

    Sadallah and Encelle conduct a systematic review of 66 multimodal STEM accessibility systems for blind and visually impaired (BVI) users published between 2015 and 2025, drawn from the ACM Digital Library, IEEE Xplore, OpenAlex, PubMed, and Web of Science. Their central argument…

  • SoundSpace: What and Where Through Sound

    Amber Maimon, Iddo Yehoshua Wald, Rahaf Sobh, Carol Sliman, Yarah Nassar, Joel Lanir · 2026 · Extended Abstracts of the 2026 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI EA '26)

    SoundSpace is a real-time sensory substitution system designed to give blind and visually impaired users simultaneous awareness of what objects are present in a scene and where they are located, without relying exclusively on verbal scene descriptions. The authors argue that…
