With the evolution of software ecosystems that involve apps, services and devices, interaction design has moved beyond the screen to touch us in every aspect of life: from driving to cooking to health care equipment and entertainment.
In this talk, Carla Diana will discuss how interaction design can be used to build holistic product experiences that fully embrace the rich relationships among people, objects, and information. She will highlight ways to envision product experiences, followed by a discussion of design methodologies that can be used to fully explore and quickly iterate through ideas to arrive at human-centered concepts built around a series of specific product behaviors.

@carladiana_
is a designer, author and educator who explores the impact of future technologies through hands-on experiments in product design and tangible interaction. She has designed a range of products from robots to connected home appliances, and her designs have appeared on the covers of Popular Science, Technology Review and the New York Times Sunday Review. She is a faculty member in the Integrated Product Design program at the University of Pennsylvania where she has created some of the country’s first courses on designing smart objects, and an ongoing collaborator with the Socially Intelligent Machines Lab at the University of Texas, Austin, where advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning are manifest in expressive robots. She writes and lectures frequently on the social impact of robotics and emerging technology and created the world’s first children’s book on 3D printing, LEO the Maker Prince. Her seminal essay, "Talking, Walking Objects", is a good representation of her view of our connected, robotic future. Carla holds a B.E. in Mechanical Engineering from the Cooper Union and an M.F.A. in 3D Design from the Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her website is www.carladiana.com.
