“…Researchers in HCI and Ubicomp have developed and evaluated technologies to support food-based practices, such as promoting healthy eating [8,9,36], helping users execute complicated cooking tasks [25] and recommending easy-to-prepare meals to users [33]. In contrast to these works, we focus instead on how users interact with an existing autonomous service.…”

The Internet of Things (IoT) promises to enable applications that foster a more efficient, sustainable, and healthy way of life. If end-users are to take full advantage of these developments we foresee the need for future IoT systems and services to include an element of autonomy and support the delegation of agency to software processes and connected devices. To inform the design of such future technology, we report on a breaching experiment designed to investigate how people integrate an unpredictable service, through the veg box scheme, in everyday life. Findings from our semi-structured interviews and a twoweek diary study with 11 households reveal that agency delegation must be warranted, that it must be possible to incorporate delegated decisions into everyday activities, and that delegation is subject to constraint. We further discuss design implications on the need to support people's diverse values, and their coordinative and creative practices.

“…Another study evaluates the Cook's Collage, a system that tries to prevent users losing track of the cooking progress by implementing a visual summary of on-going cooking activity, working as a memory aid during the process (Tran, Calcaterra, & Mynatt, 2005). The SuChef system allows friends and family to share recipes and cook suggested dishes, working between geographically dispersed households (Palay & Newman, 2009). An automated cabinet system assists the user in retrieving or storing items in the kitchen according to the recipe selected (Ficocelli & Nejat, 2012).…”

Reducing temporal tensions as a strategy to promote sustainable behaviours

This research proposes that it is possible to deliberately reduce temporal tensions in order to promote energy saving behaviours. People may not dedicate enough time to planning their tasks that consume energy, rushing into them without much deliberation. They may also use more energy than necessary in an attempt to accelerate processes that seem to be taking too long, to reduce the boredom of waiting. Persuasive technology provided the tools to manipulate the perception of time and therefore elicit changes in the specific behaviours that result in unnecessary energy usage. Cooking tasks were used as the scenario to test behaviour change strategies delivered via a smartphone application. Results showed that these strategies facilitated the performance of sustainable behaviours. Participants reported that the app made (1) them more likely to follow the steps needed to use less energy, (2) the activity more enjoyable and (3) the time appear to pass more quickly compared to a control version.

“…According to specific needs this level can be extended to include also the individual proximity, such as family members and the circle of friends, acquaintances, or neighbours. The domains addressed at this level include leisure activities (Froehlich et al, 2009;Harboe et al, 2008;Metaxas, Metin, Schneider, & Markopoulos, 2007;Nakajima et al, 2008;Tonder & Wesson, 2008;Tsujita, Tsukada, & Siio, 2008), health related issues (Bonanni, 2006;Carter & Mankoff, 2005;Consolvo, Klasnja, et al, 2008;Garcia-Vazquez et al, 2011;Obermair et al, 2008;Palay & Newman, 2009), and information awareness (Fujinami, Kawsar, & Nakajima, 2005;Fujinami & Kawsar, 2008;Hazlewood et al, 2011;Ispas et al, 2012;Minakuchi et al, 2005). Another domain addressed at this level that postulates a contextual extension is caring support, where information is distributed among a network of caregivers (Consolvo, Roessler, & Shelton, 2004;Consolvo & Towle, 2005;Dadlani, Markopoulos, & Aarts, 2009;Metaxas et al, 2007;Suganuma, Yamanaka, Tokairin, Takahashi, & Shiratori, 2008).…”

Besides the sensorial acquisition either generic content (Kukka et al, 2013;Ojala et al, 2010;Palay & Newman, 2009;Shinohara, Tomita, Kihara, & Nakajima, 2007) or personalised and/or contextualised content (Fujinami et al, 2005;Fujinami & Kawsar, 2008;Minakuchi et al, 2005;Plaue et al, 2004;Stasko et al, 2004;Valkanova et al, 2010;Ziola et al, 2007) is used as main information source. The latter ranges from adapted weather forecasts (Mirlacher et al, 2009) and bus departure schedules (Garcia-Vazquez et al, 2011;Skog et al, 2003) to spatial information (Olivier et al, 2006), but can also be entirely user generated (Carter & Mankoff, 2005;Fass et al, 2002;Lamberty et al, 2010) or generated based on user keywords (Li & Dillenbourg, 2012).…”

This paper presents results from a recent literature review on ambient displays. While the main background of the authors is education and technology-enhanced learning, the review starts more generic with a broader view on ambient displays and their interactional, instructional, and informational characteristics. Beside depicting characteristics and classifying prototypical designs, the review also sheds light on the actual use of the covered ambient displays, their application context and addressed domains as well as the type of studies conducted, including the used methodologies and evaluation approaches to measure their effectiveness and impact. The review concludes with a discussion of the presented results emphasising the derived implications for the user when interacting with ambient displays.
