In this context, we developed two versions (light-based and vibration-based) of a tangible notification manager called SenseCUBE and ran a within subject study with 9 participants to evaluate which version was perceived to be less disruptive. Participants had to solve a task while being notified by the SenseCUBEs and complete a TLX questionnaire to measure the task workload. Results suggest that there is no difference in the disruptiveness between the light SenseCUBE and the vibration SenseCUBE. Nonetheless, the light notifications were experienced as more effective in communicating the level of urgency of the notifications.enhttp://purl.org/eprint/accessRights/RestrictedAccessHuman Computer Interactionnotificationperipheral user interfacestangible user interfacesText/Conference Paper10.18420/muc2024-mci-src-292
