Day 4 at AVI 2026 - International Conference on Advanced Visual Interfaces starts with Stefania Serafin's keynote.

Stefania stressed on the need to shift from purely visual interfaces to multisensory interfaces integrating sound, touch, movement, and internal and external bodily signals.
She outlined a design perspective centered on human diversity, where multisensory systems adapt to different perceptual abilities and contexts, opening new directions for interactive creativity and accessibility.

Title of her keynote was "Beyond Visual Interfaces: Designing Multisensory Experiences" See https://www.unive.it/web/en/17590/programme to learn more about her keynote.
