The vCare project consortium is, together with other PM-15 projects, among the co-organisers of a Workshop on “Multimodal e-Coaches” at the 2020 edition of “ACM International Conference on Multimodal Interaction” (ICMI 2020). ICMI 2020 was initially scheduled  for 25-29 October 2020 in Utrecht, The Netherlands. Due to the pandemic situation, ICMI 2020 has switched from a physical organization to a virtual one. The workshop day: October 25 or 29, 2020 (still to be decided).

e-Coaches are promising intelligent systems that aims at supporting human everyday life, dispatching advices through different interfaces, such as apps, conversational interfaces and augmented reality interfaces. This workshop aims at exploring how e-coaches might benefit from spatially and time-multiplexed interfaces and from different communication modalities (e.g., text, visual, audio, etc.) according to the context of the interaction.
