A framework for differentiation in composed digital-physical products (2020)
Journal Article
Baumers, M., Ashcroft, I., Benford, S., Flintham, M., Koleva, B., Tóth, Z., & Winklhofer, H. (2020). A framework for differentiation in composed digital-physical products. International Journal of Mechatronics and Manufacturing Systems, 13(4), 286-298. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJMMS.2020.112351

Product-service systems (PSS) composed of physical products and digital services are emerging as an important new product category. In this paper we suggest that the established metaphor of 'layering' is insufficient to capture the diverse ways in wh...

The Performative Mirror Space (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Jacobs, R., Schnadelbach, H., Jaeger, N., Leal, S., Shackford, R., Benford, S., & Patel, R. (2019). The Performative Mirror Space. In CHI '19: Proceedings of the 2019 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (1–14). https://doi.org/10.1145/3290605.3300630

Interactive mirrors, typically combining semi-transparent mirrors, digital screens and interaction mechanisms have been developed for a variety of application areas. Drawing on existing techniques to create interactive mirror spaces, we investigated... Read More about The Performative Mirror Space.

Crowdsourcing good landmarks for in-vehicle navigation systems (2016)
Journal Article
Large, D. R., Burnett, G., Benford, S., & Oliver, K. (in press). Crowdsourcing good landmarks for in-vehicle navigation systems. Behaviour and Information Technology, 35(10), https://doi.org/10.1080/0144929X.2016.1158317

Augmenting navigation systems with landmarks has been posited as a method of improving the effectiveness of the technology and enhancing drivers’ engagement with the environment. However, good navigational landmarks are both laborious to collect and... Read More about Crowdsourcing good landmarks for in-vehicle navigation systems.

You’ll never walk alone: designing a location-based soundtrack (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Hazzard, A., Benford, S., & Burnett, G. (2014). You’ll never walk alone: designing a location-based soundtrack.

Musical soundtracks have great potential to enhance mobile walking experiences such as tours and guides, much as they already do for films and games. They also raise new challenges for composers as the music must fit a given landscape and respond to... Read More about You’ll never walk alone: designing a location-based soundtrack.

Broadcasting On-Line Social Interaction as Inhabited Television (1999)
Conference Proceeding
