Description

Sex technology to support sexuality for people with physical disability. People with physical disability in care are denied their sexuality, but sex technology unlocks a future without sex stigma and limitations. This project aims to determine the role, ethics, and requirements of sex technology to support sexuality for this group. This project expects to create new knowledge in human-computer interaction, digital media studies, and design using a new method and framework that introduces queer theory. Expected project outcomes include new research methods co-designed with experts and people with lived experience and practical know-how about sex technology design, implementation, and governance. This should provide significant benefits, such as major new collaborations, awareness-raising, and demystification.. Scheme: Discovery Early Career Researcher Award. Field: 4608 - Human-Centred Computing. Lead: Dr Adam Poulsen
