Abstract

Human-Engaged Computing (HEC) is a framework that addresses “synergized interaction” sustaining both humans and computers in the right balance, a relationship that consciously honors human inner capabilities over device creativity. Due to the growing interest and demand on voice search for older adults, it is critical to research on how to engage older adults with voice search to improve their healthiness and wellbeing. This paper presents two case studies to discuss the approaches and thoughts about applying HEC to the current voice search systems, in particular, how HEC can engage older adults with interaction of voice search systems and how we can measure older adults’ engagement with such systems.
