Future Innovations

Quick Facts

"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from
magic." Arthur C. Clarke

The new Future Innovation Track aims to push forward innovative ideas
with the potential to shape the future of mobile Human Computer
Interaction. The track is open to any kind of idea, regardless whether
it has been already published, patented or produced.  We are
especially keen to attract submissions from industry, non-academic
groups and freelancers as well as academics in the field of mobile
human computer interaction. Submissions can include (but are not
restricted to) novel concepts, technology and experience prototypes,
scenario descriptions, design sketches, digital art work and
experience reports.

The track accepts the following digital submission formats:

* Written text with images: 2-pages (ACM paper style)
* Videos: any usual format (max. length 3 min.), accompanied by a
short abstract describing the submission
* Storyboard or cartoon: 3 pages DinA4 or letter format

* Sideshow: a stack of images (max. 10) without text, accompanied by a
short abstract describing the submission

We are open to alternative submission formats. If you want to suggest
an alternative format please contact one of the Future Innovation
co-chairs: Kristina Andersen and Antonio Krüger
(FutureInnovationChairs@MobileHCI09.org)

The most important criterion for acceptance is the degree of innovation.

The submissions will be evaluated by members of the MobileHCI 2009
Program committee and submitters will be notified by June 7, 2009.
Accepted submissions will be presented in a new gallery format during
MobileHCI2009. Accepted submissions will be published in the ACM
library unless you prefer the concept to remain unpublished. Please
state your preference clearly on the submission.
