The Design Exhibition is an integral part of the conference, showcasing original works that focus on wearable technologies and innovations related to the human body.<\/p>\n<p>Submissions are in the form of short papers (4-page excluding references) that will be included in UbiComp\/ISWC 2025 Adjunct Proceedings and in the ACM Digital Library. These are not considered to be archival publications; presentation in the Design Exhibition will not affect the ability of researchers to subsequently publish this work in an archival forum as a full conference or journal paper.<\/p>\n<p>As UbiComp\/ISWC 2025 is expected to be a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ubicomp.org\/ubicomp-iswc-2025\/authors\/\">fully in-person event<\/a>, all accepted submissions should have at least one author who is registered and able to travel to the conference so that they can showcase the work. The physical artifacts described in accepted papers will be exhibited at the conference venue. The exhibition is curated through a double-blind review process (juried exhibition).<\/p>\n<p>All works will be introduced during the conference opening and featured on monitors throughout the event to promote visibility and encourage discussions. Each accepted work will receive a short presentation slot during the exhibition opening event.<\/p>\n<h3>Exhibition Format &amp; Requirements<\/h3>\n<p>Accepted works will be exhibited in a co-located space structured as an art\/museum exhibition. Works should fit on a pedestal, mannequin, or rack. The space can accommodate large stand-alone works if space permits.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Installation<\/strong>: TBD<\/li>\n<li><strong>Removal<\/strong>: TBD<\/li>\n<li><strong>Technical Support<\/strong>: Power outlets and basic internet connectivity available upon request<\/li>\n<li><strong>Materials Restrictions<\/strong>: No hazardous, flammable, or liquid materials that may damage the exhibition space<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Authors of accepted submissions must:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Attend in person to install and uninstall their artifacts<\/li>\n<li>Participate in the 40-minute Design Exhibition opening event on October 14, 2025<\/li>\n<li>Present their work in a 3-minute presentation during the opening<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Submission Categories<\/h3>\n<p>We encourage submissions of works incorporating elements such as on-body sensing, sensor networks, responsive fashion technologies, body enhancements like bionic limbs and smart prosthetics, and wearables designed for professional use, mobile healthcare, entertainment, and more. Submissions that seamlessly combine functionality, aesthetics, with critical design and sustainable fabrication will be highlighted.<\/p>\n<p>We encourage works that fit one or more of the following categories:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Functional<\/strong>: Wearables designed with a strong focus on practicality, addressing specific problems or needs through technological solutions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Aesthetic<\/strong>: Wearables that prioritize visual appeal and artistic impact achieved through innovative technology.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sustainability<\/strong>: Wearable-related innovations incorporating aspects of sustainability, including meaningfulness, accessibility, user experience, and usability. Design methods and fabrication methodologies are also encouraged.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Submission Documents<\/h3>\n<h4>Design Paper<\/h4>\n<p>Authors should submit an illustrated design paper using the UbiComp\/ISWC 2-column ACM proceedings template available at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ubicomp.org\/ubicomp-iswc-2025\/authors\/formatting\/\">UbiComp\/ISWC Templates Page<\/a>. The core paper\u2014including all text and figures\u2014must not exceed 4 pages. References do not count toward the page limit and may extend to page 5 and beyond. Appendices are not allowed.<\/p>\n<p>The paper should clearly describe the concept, motivation, intended audience and end use, technological functionality, and execution details. All figures should be embedded in the document and referenced in the text. Please format all citations and references according to ACM guidelines.<\/p>\n<p>Submissions must be prepared for blind review\u2014do not include author names or affiliations. For reference, see past examples: <a href=\"https:\/\/dl.acm.org\/doi\/10.1145\/3341163.3346938\">Example 1<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/dl.acm.org\/doi\/10.1145\/3594739.3610787\">Example 2<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/dl.acm.org\/doi\/10.1145\/3594739.3610781\">Example 3<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>Supporting Materials<\/h4>\n<p>In addition to the design paper, supporting materials are required. High-resolution images are strongly encouraged at the time of submission and will be required for all accepted designs for the camera-ready submission. These images will be used in the ISWC Design Exhibition and must be uploaded separately.<\/p>\n<p>A video demonstration (maximum 3 minutes) is also strongly encouraged at submission time and will be required for accepted submissions. The video should effectively showcase the functionality and design of your work.<\/p>\n<h4>Submission Process<\/h4>\n<p>Prepare your 4-page design paper using the ACM proceedings template with all author information removed for double-blind review. Submit your paper and supporting materials through the Precision Conference website at <a href=\"http:\/\/new.precisionconference.com\/sigchi\">http:\/\/new.precisionconference.com\/sigchi<\/a>.

While it retains the name of the latter in recognition of the visionary work of Mark Weiser, its long name reflects the dual history of the new event.<\/p>\n<p>The ACM International Symposium on Wearable Computing (ISWC) discusses novel results in all aspects of wearable computing, and has been colocated with UbiComp and Pervasive since 2013.<\/p>\n<p>A complete list of UbiComp, Pervasive, and ISWC past conferences is provided below.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-button-wrapper\"><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat fusion-button-default-size button-custom fusion-button-default button-1 fusion-button-default-span fusion-button-default-type\" style=\"--button_accent_color:#105378;--button_accent_hover_color:#105378;--button_border_hover_color:#105378;--button-border-radius-top-left:0;--button-border-radius-top-right:0;--button-border-radius-bottom-right:0;--button-border-radius-bottom-left:0;--button_gradient_top_color:#e5e6e8;--button_gradient_bottom_color:#e5e6e8;--button_gradient_top_color_hover:#999a9b;--button_gradient_bottom_color_hover:#999a9b;\" target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/ubicomp.hosting.acm.org\/ubicompiswc2025_wp\/past-conferences\/\"><span class=\"fusion-button-text\">View all<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/footer>\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ubicomp.hosting.acm.org\/ubicompiswc2025_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1802"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ubicomp.hosting.acm.org\/ubicompiswc2025_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ubicomp.hosting.acm.org\/ubicompiswc2025_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ubicomp.hosting.acm.org\/ubicompiswc2025_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ubicomp.hosting.acm.org\/ubicompiswc2025_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1802"}],"version-history":[{"count":47,"href":"https:\/\/ubicomp.hosting.acm.org\/ubicompiswc2025_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1802\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4635,"href":"https:\/\/ubicomp.hosting.acm.org\/ubicompiswc2025_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1802\/revisions\/4635"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ubicomp.hosting.acm.org\/ubicompiswc2025_wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1802"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
