 Special Issue on Interaction in Augmented Smart Environments
Call for Papers
International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks (Hindawi, Impact Factor 
0.203)

Digitally augmented environments facilitate accessing additional layers of 
virtual information and services, which
are conceptually linked to real references (objects, spaces, people, 
interfaces, sensors, etc.). In order to interface with
these invisible layers, novel interaction models are being developed. Following 
the usability paradigm easy to learn,
easy to use, most of these models rely on real-time data acquired from 
different sensing devices: mobile devices,
wearable sensors, hybrid sensors, or sensor networks. All in all, the final 
objective is to enable an enjoyable and efficient
way to interface with a highly responsive environment, facilitating traditional 
tasks but also making possible a new
user experience.

This special issue aims to gather original and visionary advances of new 
sensor-based interaction concepts in digitally
augmented environments. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
 Sensor fusion technologies for interaction
 Sensing solutions for hybrid natural interfaces: voice, touch, and 
gesture-based concepts
 Tangible/graspable interfaces and smart objects
 Sensors and data fusion techniques for gaze tracking systems
 Interfaces based on mobile sensors
 Sensing technologies to enhance the experience of augmented reality
 Hybrid sensing for identification and authentication
 Methodologies to design sensor-based user interfaces
 Holistic sensing systems and interaction models in different scenarios: 
health, surgery, education, smart
home, support to independent living, leisure and gaming, scene personalization, 
etc
 User validation studies
