Sustainability & hardware development are two facets of work that are hard for HCI researchers & labs to reconcile, we agree and decided to explore this tension in a #UIST2023 workshop: sustainablemaking.com pls join us Tingyu Cheng Jasmine Lu Pedro Lopes Huaishu Peng

Many that is to folks who joined us for out workshop! Shout out to our amazing keynote speakers Gregory D. Abowd Eric Paulos Kristin Williams!! And my co-organizers Tingyu Cheng Jasmine Lu Huaishu Peng Pedro Lopes!! We will keep the conversation going for a better sustainable future!

Wonderful time with almost my entire academic family;) See you all until next time! #UIST2023 #UIST2024

In Nature Electronics, researchers from the Conformable Decoders group led by Prof. Canan Dagdeviren + colleagues present a wearable ultrasound patch that can image tissues deep inside the body. Their initial study demonstrated its utility in measuring bladder volume. news.mit.edu/2023/ultrasoun…

What are the odds of having two amazing HCI researchers on the same day? Thanks to Pedro Lopes and Seongkook Heo for the fantastic back-to-back talks and for dropping by our labs! We were all awed by the day. Kudos to Jun Jun Nishida for organizing it all!

♻️Ever frustrated by wasting functional SMD components from old prototypes because desoldering is too troublesome or simply not worth the effort? Our new SolderlessPCB project at CHI 24, led by my amazing student Zeyu Zeyu Yan, introduces an alternative way to make PCB

How many Digikey order to you place that contains the same components? Ever thought about ways to reuse olds components? Check out our CHI24 paper SolderlessPCB -- A new assembly method that promote component reusing ♻️

🎉 Congrats Jiasheng Li Jiasheng for winning the 2024 HCIL Maryland Way Award for Research Excellence! This is HCIL's biggest award each year🙌 Photo from a very proud advisor with very bad photography skills 😉 HCIL #hcil2024

♻️♻️♻️Zeyu Yan's work on sustainable and solderless PCB reached 1k downloads on the ACM library and 7k+ views on YouTube within 1 month of #CHI2024! For research that isn’t mainstream yet, it's pretty impressive! Congrats and super proud ;) dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/36…

🤩What an incredible experience! #UIST2024 Thank you to all my collaborators Huaishu Peng Jun Nishida Zeyu Yan Jiasheng Li for your support, and to everyone who attended my talk and demo. It was a pleasure having you all! 🥰

Amazing experience at #UIST2024 🥰 Glad to meet so many new friends and learn about inspiring work from colleagues in the HCI community. It was also my first time presenting and demoing JetUnit! Hit me up for future collaborations on #haptics related to fluid media and thermo!

Thank you for highlighting our latest research! Excited to continue exploring innovative solutions in haptics.

📢 Thinking about pursuing a PhD in technical HCI? Our group at UMD CS is recruiting! We work on novel/sustainable fabrication systems, XR haptics, and AI for accessibility, publishing at #CHI and #UIST. Learn more at smartlab.cs.umd.edu & feel free to reach out /DM!

Proud of Jiasheng Li for his successful debut at #IEEEVR2025! Our study explores vibration & skin-stretch as haptic feedback for blind users in using VR, rendering both static & dynamic cues. Findings: Skin-stretch = more accurate, but many prefer vibration. Haptics should be

2nd sustainable making paper by Zeyu Yan also Honorable Mention! This time, a technical paper on how to repurpose obsolete PCBs into new uses, saving both material and energy a lot! Talk in the same session, 11 G314-315. With Zining Zhang Jiasheng Li Advait Vartak
