We are very happy to present the proceedings of the 4th Augmented
Human International Conference (Augmented Human 2013). Augmented
Human 2013 focuses on augmenting human capabilities through technology
for increased well-being and enjoyable human experience. The conference
is in cooperation with ACM SIGCHI, with its proceedings to be archived
in ACM\textquoteright}s Digital Library. With technological advances,
computing has progressively moved beyond the desktop into new physical
and social contexts. As physical artifacts gain new computational
behaviors, they become reprogrammable, customizable, repurposable,
and interoperable in rich ecologies and diverse contexts. They also
become more complex, and require intense design effort in order to
be functional, usable, and enjoyable. Designing such systems requires
interdisciplinary thinking. Their creation must not only encompass
software, electronics, and mechanics, but also the system{\textquoterights
physical form and behavior, its social and physical milieu, and beyond.
