Grand challenges in CyclingHCI

Abstract

Cycling Human-Computer Interaction (CyclingHCI) refers to the study and design of user interfaces and interactions between bicycles and riders in the context of cycling-related experiences. To date, however, there has yet to be a structured agenda for CyclingHCI to clarify the immediate challenges researchers should address next and facilitate the advancement of the feld. We, three CyclingHCI researchers who collectively designed, developed, evaluated 18 CyclingHCI projects, refected on our experiences to derive 10 grand challenges that we articulate with design opportunities and considerations grouped into: (1) Pushing the technological boundaries for cycling, (2) Understanding and protecting cyclists, and (3) Spatially situated cycling interaction. Our fndings provide practical implications for research and practice in CyclingHCI, with which we aim to enrich the cycling experience through the safe integration of technology. Show more
