CHI 2017 Paper + Videos

I’m happy to note that I’ve had a full paper [1] accepted to CHI 2017. The paper describes research from the ABBI project, about how sound from wearable and fixed sources can be used to help visually impaired children at school (for more, please see here). The videos in this post include a short description of the paper as well as a longer description of the research and our findings.
