SelfSustainableCHI: Self-Powered Sustainable Interfaces and Interactions

The continued proliferation of computing devices comes with an ever-increasing energy requirement, both during production and use. As awareness of the global climate emergency increases, self-powered and sustainable (SelfSustainable) interactive devices are likely to play a valuable role. In this workshop we bring together researchers and practitioners from design, computer science, materials science, engineering and manufacturing industries working on this new area of endeavour. The workshop will provide a platform for participants to review and discuss challenges and opportunities associated with self-powered and sustainable interfaces and interactions, develop a design space and identify opportunities for future research.
