Widely-accepted sleep guidelines advise regular bedtimes and sleep hygiene. An individual's adherence is often viewed as a matter of self-regulation and anti-procrastination. We pose a question from a different perspective: What if it comes to a matter of one's social or professional duty that mandates irregular daily life, making it incompatible with the premise of standard guidelines? We propose SleepGuru, an individually actionable sleep planning system featuring one's real-life compatibility and extended forecast.

We propose a novel architecture, namely, Social Control-and-Use Architecture for IoT Devices, which provides a systematic view and an effective tool to handle the complication and intricacy in system design. It transforms an exclusively controlled actuator in public spaces into a true public actuator, supporting visitors to instantly participate in the democratic collective control. A myriad of off-the-shelf actuators is easily incorporated without modification to their implementation. 

A parent's capacity to understand the mental states of both him/herself and the child is considered to play a significant role in various aspects of parent-child relationship--e.g., lowering parental stress and supporting cognitive development of the child. We propose Dyadic Mirror, a wearable smart mirror which is designed to foster the aforementioned parental capacity in everyday parent-child interaction. Its key feature is to provide a parent with a second-person live-view from the child, i.e., the parent's own face as seen by the child, during their face-to-face interaction.
