Exploring Human-Drone Interaction
Jessica R. Cauchard · 2020
Drones are becoming increasingly interactive and offer novel opportunities for mobile interactions. This hands-on course will present rapid prototyping techniques for designing drone interfaces. We will use physical prototyping to approach participatory design techniques when designing future interactions, and digital prototyping tools with small-sized drones using Python (with an option for visual programming) to implement part of the interaction. The course will include an introduction to the field of human-drone interaction and its methodologies, two hands-on prototyping sessions with physical materials and digital tools, and a presentation session where participants get to show off their prototypes!
