On 23th October 2020, Professor Yoshihiro Kawahara (Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Systems), Lecturer Ryuma Niiyama (Department of Mechano-Informatics, Graduate School of Information Science and Technology), and other researchers received Best Demo Award from The 33rd Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology (UIST ’20).
The 33rd Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology (UIST ‘20) “Best Demo Award”
UIST, one of the top conferences on user interfaces, were held online during Oct. 20 - Oct 23, 2020. Best Demo Award was given to the top one demonstration in the demo session of the conference. The awarded demo was on inflatable mobility devices that was published as a paper “poimo: Portable and Inflatable Mobility Devices Customizable for Personal Physical Characteristics” in UIST.

We, the co-authors of poimo, are all very proud of this award. Considering a better way to demonstrate our work for UIST that took place online for the first time due to the COVID-19 pandemic led to the award. We believe our research will enhance the freedom of mobility and help achieve an inclusive society where diverse people can join cultural and economic activities. We will keep on working on proof-of-concept experiments for improvement and commercialization of our technology.
