Dear Colleagues,

Sensor-driven systems allow new forms of interaction, such as cross-device interaction, that can improve the engagement of users in ubicomp spaces. This drives the research to focus on the design of new meta-user interfaces to enable the interaction between the user and the surrounding space through different devices and in different forms depending on the characteristics of the ambient environment. Usability issues are related to the spontaneous discoverability of the meta-user interface, the feedforward of the interaction, and the kinds of feedback.

Contributions to this Special Issue are expected to push the boundaries of user interaction within the ambient environment, exploring how sensor technologies can facilitate the design of cross-device interaction and the ways they can improve the usability of meta-user interfaces to gradually engage users in the surrounding space.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:

Predictive interaction
Interaction in IOT
Cross-device interaction
Ubiquitous interaction
Mixed reality in the ambient environment
Adaptive and Context-Aware Interfaces
Full-body interaction
Multitouch interaction
Haptic Feedback
Gestural interaction
User engagement

In smart application domains such as the following:

Domotics
Health care
Cultural heritage
Smart community and Smart city
Smart industry
Smart farming
Technology Enhanced Learning
Vehicle and environment interaction
Human-vehicle interaction
