Abstract

In this paper, we explore the possibility of designing interactive products that allow users to express themselves with daily behaviors to have their own special experiences, and the expression would improve their social interaction as well. Three design works were implemented. For each design, experiment was held to collect user feedback, which was mostly positive. We also see a tendency that users would be much expressive when interacting with physical objects that bear more information related to their everyday life.
