Postdoc opportunity at the University of Bristol in cross-sensory fabrication and playful interaction (24 months). This role is part of the ERC-funded inclusiveXplay project within the Bristol Interaction Group / Diverse-ability Interaction Lab . The project explores how multiple senses—such as touch, sound, light, scent, taste , and beyond—can be combined to design accessible and playful interactive experiences for blind or visually impaired and sighted preschool children. The work sits at the intersection of human-computer interaction , tangible interaction , fabrication , shape-change , cross-sensory cognition , and inclusive design. The successful candidate will help design, fabricate, and evaluate novel cross-sensory interactive systems and prototypes within an interdisciplinary HCI research team. Funding: ERC-funded postdoctoral position for 2 years. No salary amount is stated in the post excerpt provided. Eligibility/fit: Applicants should be interested in or experienced with HCI, accessible technology, interactive systems, and interdisciplinary research. The project is especially relevant to researchers working on inclusive play, sensory interaction, and child-centered design. Deadline: Closing soon on 7 May .
