Visiting Researcher
Kyle Montague was a lecturer at Open Lab with expertise and research interests including human-computer interaction, accessibility, wearable devices and mobile interaction, social computing, and healthcare technologies.
During his time in the Lab he explored:
- Technologies to support access to healthcare information for refugees by allowing these communities to commission and run their own radio shows over telephony networks from a smartphone device
- The activist role of digital technologies and personal informatics to capture evidence of the working conditions and pay models of home care workers
- Methods to improve the accessibility and learnability of touchscreen devices through new models of data donation and human-powered computing
