About the Talk How can we coexist with computers that continue to evolve beyond our wildest imagination? Data indicates that fewer than 10% of the population can fully utilize these advanced computers, even with the rapid proliferation of computers and mobile devices. How should we interact with entities that surpass human intelligence, such as LLMs, when most of us struggle to use computers in the first place? How can we integrate these computers into our lives to enhance our well-being? Can they indeed provide support for our daily existence?
This presentation will highlight my research on interaction design that leverages computer technologies to improve our lives. I will specifically showcase my work on human-computer interaction (HCI), ranging from touchscreen user interfaces to mobile device interfaces, home robot interfaces, and those that enhance digital entertainment and creative pursuits. Throughout this talk, I will share insights and ideas from my previous research that could potentially serve as the foundation for our future lives. About the Speaker Dr. Daisuke Sakamoto is an Associate Professor in the Human-Computer Interaction Laboratory at Hokkaido University. He received his B.A. in Media Architecture, M.S., and Ph.D. in Systems Information Science from Future University-Hakodatein 2004, 2006, and 2008, respectively. His career includes positions as a researcher at ATR Intelligent Robotics and Communication Labs, a JSPS Research Fellow at The University of Tokyo, and a researcher at the JST ERATO Igarashi Design Interface Project. Before joining Hokkaido University, he served as an Assistant Professor and Project Lecturer at The University of Tokyo. His research focuses on Human-Computer Interaction and Human-Robot Interaction, specializing in user interface and interaction design. https://daisukesakamoto.jp/en/ |
