Call for abstracts/papers, Cambridge, UK; 3rd-6th September 2019: Technological and Biological Bodies in Dialogue

Working on (Multi)sensory Body Perception and Interaction?
Interested in building synergies with relevant work in Affective Computing, Human-Computer Interaction and Cognitive Sciences?

 
The biannual International Conference on Affective Computing & Intelligent Interaction (ACII), featuring keynote speakers, Simon Baron-Cohen, University of Cambridge and Lisa Feldman Barrett, Northeastern University, is very keen to bring together junior and senior researchers to present ‘flash talks’ (less than 10 minutes) and posters in a special session entitled «Technological and Biological Bodies in Dialogue: Multidisciplinary Perspectives on Multisensory Embodied Emotion and Cognition” and  including topics such as
            • Embodied cognition and emotion
            • Body-centred computing
            • Multisensory Body, Affective and Social Perception
            • Multimodal interactive systems for body sensing and feedback
            • Opportunities and challenges for body sensing/feedback technology
            • Approaches for sharing information about one’s body and emotions using body sensing
            • Body sensing/feedback wearable technology, virtual/mixed reality, avatars, ubiquitous computing
            • Ethical issues around body sensing/feedback technology
            • Applications of body sensing/feedback technology (such as rehabilitation, sports, health, games, art, etc)
