Building Devices: Hardware, Materials, and Fabrication

This subcommittee focuses on advances in interactive hardware, new sensing, display, and actuation approaches, developments in materials that lead to novel interactive capabilities, and new fabrication techniques. Contributions will be judged based on the novelty of the resulting hardware prototype, the quality of the implementation, and the demonstrated improvements over existing hardware through a technical evaluation and where appropriate a user study. In addition, work in this subcommittee covers design tools that extend the type of interactive hardware we can build today.
