Joint AVIxD / IxDA Workshop: Speech Interaction on Mobile Devices

Date and Location

Sunday, 7 August 2011 | 1 – 7 PM | New York, New York, USA

Goals

This workshop is specifically designed to bring interaction design practitioners together from all specialties including voice, interactive, digital, and related areas.

As in past workshops, we will be publishing the output of the discussions on www.avixd.org and this year, also on www.ixda.org.

Format

This workshop will lead with a small number of keynote presentations on speech and mobile application design. Discussion groups will follow to delve into topics of relevance. The topics will be drawn from the submissions of the attendees. The 30 person participant group will be curated so that there is a mix of experience levels and practice areas, as well as engaged learners.

Who should attend?
