Brief description:
This book will describe human-computer interaction (HCI) challenges and
opportunities in outdoor settings for communities, groups, and
individuals. Interactive computing, which includes technologies like
mobile phones, wearables, and interactive computing installations, is
increasingly used for extended periods of time outdoors outside of
traditional controlled and managed indoor environments. Domains of
interest include recreation, education, citizen science, wellness, and
games. Scales of impact include individuals with personal devices, small
groups using technology to support common goals, and large communities
of people whose ways of doing and being are affected by outdoor
technologies.
