The study aims to provide insights that balance technical opportunities with ethical design responsibilities. An empirical investigation was performed collecting data through interviews with smartwatch users, developing a novel smartwatch prototype and organizing iterative feedback sessions. A key finding is that several of the values deemed important by researchers have limited significance for actual users ...enText/Conference Paper10.48340/ihc2023_p017
