New Approaches for Prototyping Interactive Applications in Urban Environments In Proceedings of the 6th ACM Conference Media Architecture Biennale (MAB '2020). Amsterdam, Utrecht, The Netherlands, June 28 - July 02, 2021. ACM, New York, NY, USA. |
Urban interfaces play an important role in the field of me- dia architecture and smart cities. They enable citizens to access the digital layer of the city, to interact with urban ap- plications, and to make more informed decisions about how they utilise the urban infrastructure. As the field of media architecture is diversifying, urban interfaces can also take on new forms, from advanced projections to robotic installa- tions. These interfaces are complex to develop and in many cases difficult to test in real-life situations with users. This workshop invites people working in this field to submit new approaches for prototyping such interfaces in urban envi- ronments. The aim of the workshop is to take stock of the status quo and to inspire new approaches that have the po- tential to accelerate and support future work on designing and evaluating emerging urban interfaces. |
