Preface

Overview The International Workshop on Haptic and Audio Interaction Design was organized as part of the EPSRC-funded MultiVis project. The main focus of the workshop was to investigate how the modalities of sound and haptics (touch) could be used together in interaction, and what novel interfaces could be provided when they are used in conjunction. What are the relative advantages of each of the modalities when used alone and together? Are there reasons why haptic-based information is more useful in certain situations than equivalent audio information? How can different modalities be used together to create compelling and useful interaction with computer-based
