Abstract

Pervasive social communications are instant social activities through communications based on mobile elements, e.g., via mobile ad hoc networks. Meanwhile, fashionable technology is becoming a trend in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) design. It extends the traditional understanding of HCI by emphasizing aesthetic element. This paper investigates how to use fashionable technology in pervasive social communications. It presents a novel approach to realize secure recognition for pervasive face-to-face social communications based on MANET, local connectivity and fashionable technology. The social acceptance of this inter-disciplinary approach is explored through a small-scale user study.
