Abstract

In order to investigate deformable user interfaces (DUIs) on mobile devices, an experience workshop was developed to encounter the new interaction style. The design of the workshop strives to bridge form factors and use cases with genuine interaction, which was made possible through prototyping. Prior to the workshop, an explorative experiment was designed to study the role of form in DUI design. Based on the result, several shapes were 3D-printed for further investigation in the workshop. During the workshop, experts in design and engineering experienced a whole design process in which various prototypes were built and the interaction was practiced. The participants were encouraged to practice the imagined scenario with prototypes in real life setting. The result of the workshop became valuable input for building a working prototype.
