Cambridge and BT have been working together for more than 25 years developing new technologies, exploring human behaviour and considering how those two things come together to shape our world.
A new type of online product image, developed by researchers at the University of Cambridge in collaboration with global consumer goods company Unilever, could improve the mobile shopping experience for the world’s 2.5 billion smartphone users.
New report urges government and designers to work together to break down the barriers to innovation in order to adapt to an ageing population.
Simulation gloves and glasses which recreate the effects of moderate impairments have been released by researchers, who say that the designers of many everyday products are frustrating millions of customers by failing to take such limitations into account.
A new simulator could help the elderly or disabled users engage more effectively with electronic devices, including websites, smartphones and digital television.
The so-called ‘demographic time bomb’ is ticking. But is product design good enough to keep up with the ageing population?
