End date: Ongoing

Description: Project exploring how a multimodal communication system might be used for interpersonal communication. By combining gestural inputs with audio and vibrotactile outputs, users can compose and send their own multimodal messages, which they can use to communicate with other people remotely. The research explores what types of sounds and “touches” people might wish to send, how these are interpreted by the receiver, and how these multimodal messages are used in combination with other communication genres, such as text messaging and voice calls.
