Digitally extended products raise new issues in service and product design: novel user interfaces have to be designed to engage users in new services and help them to become aware of the new capabilities and smartness of products. Virtual, augmented and mixed reality communities are invited to present their work on the challenging field of the User Experience Design for the Web of Things to this symposium.
