RESEARCH PROFILE
Dr. Steven Houben is Associate Professor in Human-Data Interaction in the Department of Industrial Design and the Artificial Intelligence Systems Institute (EAISI) at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e).
His work is in the field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Human-Data Interaction (HDI) at the intersection of Design, Engineering, and Computer Science. His research on Tangible and Physical Computing blends and integrates data, interactions, and interfaces into real-world applications on digital health, education, industry 4.0, and knowledge work. He works on (i) Collaborative augmented device ecologies: 'design for the future of work' where devices are merged into larger intelligent ecologies that support collaboration, nomadic work, and new emerging work practices; and (ii) Physicalizing human-data interaction: 'support from sensor to physicalization' and study new co-creation processes, concepts, interaction paradigms, and data embodiments for non-expert human-data/AI interaction.
