abstract = {The fields of programmable matter, actuated materials, and Soft Robotics are becoming increasingly more relevant for the design of novel applications, interfaces, and user experiences in the domain of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). These research fields often use soft, flexible materials with elastic actuation mechanisms to build systems that are more adaptable, compliant, and suitable for a very broad range of environments. However, at the intersection between HCI and the aforementioned domains, there are numerous challenges related to fabrication methods, development tools, resource availability, nomenclature, design for inclusion, etc. This workshop aims to explore how to make Soft Robotics more accessible to both researchers and nonresearchers alike. We will (1) investigate and identify the various difficulties people face when developing HCI applications that require the transfer of knowledge from those other domains, and (2) discuss possible solutions and visions on how to overcome those difficulties.},

abstract = {Haptic devices have been around for decades, providing critical information, usability benefits and improved experiences across tasks from surgical operations to playful applications in Mixed Reality. We see more and more software and hardware solutions emerging that provide design tools, design approaches and platforms, both in academia and industry. However, we believe that designers often re-invent the wheel, and must spend an inordinate amount of time doing their work, which is not sustainable for long-term research. This workshop aims at gathering people from academia and industry to provide a common ground to discuss various insights on and visions of the field. We aim to bring together the various strands of haptics -- devices, software, and design -- to assess the current state-of-the-art and propose an agenda towards haptics as a united design discipline. We expect the outcome of the workshop to be a comprehensive overview of existing tools and approaches, along with recommendations on how to move the field forward, together.},
