Organizations have widely deployed generative AI tools, yet productivity gains remain uneven, suggesting that how people use AI matters as much as whether they have access. We conducted a field experiment with 388 employees at a Fortune 500…
Regardless of their industrial or research application, the streamlining of robot operations is limited by the proximity of experienced users to the actual hardware. Be it massive open online robotics courses, crowd-sourcing of robot task…
3D printing has long been a technology for industry professionals and enthusiasts willing to tinker or even build their own machines. This stands in stark contrast to today's market, where recent developments have prioritized ease of use to…
The rise of AR/VR has led to an increased demand for 3D content. However, the traditional method of creating 3D content using Computer-Aided Design (CAD) is a labor-intensive and skill-demanding process, making it difficult to use for…
In spatial design, Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools often generate the entire spatial design outcome in a single automated step, rather than engaging users in a deepening and iterative process. This significantly reduces users'…
Innovation inside companies is difficult to see. But an emerging online community of inventors who publicly post 3D CAD drawings of their work provide a way to observe - and perhaps amplify - innovation. In this paper we analyze the network…
3D object detection models trained in one server plays an important role in autonomous driving, robotics manipulation, and augmented reality scenarios. However, most existing methods face severe privacy concern when deployed on a…
As part of the Participatory Knowledge Practices in Analogue and Digital Image Archives (PIA) research project, we have been implementing Linked Open Usable Data (LOUD) standards including the International Image Interoperability Framework…
The common layer-by-layer deposition of regular, 3-axis 3D printing simplifies both the fabrication process and the 3D printer's mechanical design. However, the resulting 3D printed objects have some unfavourable characteristics including…
In computational physics, chemistry, and biology, the implementation of new techniques in a shared and open source software lowers barriers to entry and promotes rapid scientific progress. However, effectively training new software users…
Social interaction is a fundamental aspect of human behavior and communication. The way individuals position themselves in relation to others, also known as proxemics, conveys social cues and affects the dynamics of social interaction.…
Current workflow on co-editing and simultaneous presentation of 3-D shapes is confined to on-screen manipulation, which causes loss of perceived information when presenting perceptual concepts or complex shapes between members. Thus, we…
Fleets of networked manufacturing machines of the same type, that are collocated or geographically distributed, are growing in popularity. An excellent example is the rise of 3D printing farms, which consist of multiple networked 3D…
