The Institute for Design Informatics at the University of Edinburgh promotes the design of systems for better human-data interaction. Their work takes place in diverse settings such as health, culture, mobility, and finance. It explores design from, with, and by data. The central concern is the design of flows of data that sustain and enhance human values. Relevant technologies range from the internet of things, through blockchains, to robotics, speech recognition, data visualisation, interaction design, and social computing.
