PERMID 2008: Pervasive Mobile Interaction Devices

Interaction research on the pervasive mobile devices is a rather young and rapidly developing field. So far mobile handheld devices have been mostly used for phone calls, messaging and organizer functionalities. However, mobile multimedia features, device-integrated sensors and improving data transfer capabilities are expanding their use to ever increasing application areas. Mobile devices offer great potential to develop new interaction methods and applications for pervasive computing. They can function as a mediator between the virtual and the physical world, as an accessible user interface for smart environments, and platforms for location or context-aware application, to mention a few.
