Introduction to the special issue on interaction with smart objects

Abstract: Smart objects can be smart because of the information and communication technology that is added to human-made artifacts. It is not, however, the technology itself that makes them smart but rather the way in which the technology is integrated, and their smartness surfaces through how people are able to interact with these objects. Hence, the key challenge for making smart objects successful is to design usable and useful interactions with them. We list five features that can contribute to the smartness of an o… Show more

“…Reference [15] suggests that objects' smartness depends on how people are able to interact with them, emphasizing that the key challenge for making smart objects successful is to design usable and useful interactions with them. Such approaches find arguments in the theories of socio-material relations, which demonstrate the constitutive entanglement of social and material in everyday life [16] and Actor-Network Theory (ANT) [17].…”
