'''Animal-computer interaction''' ('''ACI''') is a field of research which studies the design and use of technology with, for and by animals. ACI emerged from, and is heavily influenced by, the discipline of [[Human–computer interaction|human-computer interaction]] (HCI).
In an ''ACI Manifesto'' (2011), Mancini defines one aim of ACI as understanding "the interaction between animals and computing technology within the contexts in which animals habitually live, are active, and socialize with members of the same or other species, including humans".<ref name=":0">{{Cite journal|last=Mancini|first=Clara|date=July 2011|title=Animal-computer Interaction: A Manifesto|journal=Interactions|volume=18|issue=4|pages=69–73|doi=10.1145/1978822.1978836|issn=1072-5520|url=http://oro.open.ac.uk/28857/1/ACI-Manifesto-OpenResearchOnline.pdf}}</ref> Mancini's ''ACI Manifesto'' additionally proposes three core design goals for the field: enhancing animals' quality of life and wellbeing; supporting animals in the functions assigned to them by humans; and supporting human-animal relationships. Accordingly, ACI research gives considerable attention to questions of animal ethics,<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Mancini|first=Clara|title=Towards an animal-centred ethics for Animal–Computer Interaction|journal=International Journal of Human-Computer Studies|volume=98|pages=221–233|doi=10.1016/j.ijhcs.2016.04.008|year=2017|url=http://oro.open.ac.uk/46164/1/Mancini_1-s2.0-S1071581916300180-main.pdf}}</ref> welfare,<ref>{{Cite book|last=Mancini|first=Clara|last2=van der Linden|first2=Janet|last3=Kortuem|first3=Gerd|last4=Dewsbury|first4=Guy|last5=Mills|first5=Daniel|last6=Boyden|first6=Paula|date=2014|title=UbiComp for Animal Welfare: Envisioning Smart Environments for Kenneled Dogs|journal=Proceedings of the 2014 ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing|series=UbiComp '14|___location=New York, NY, USA|publisher=ACM|pages=117–128|doi=10.1145/2632048.2632073|isbn=9781450329682|url=http://oro.open.ac.uk/41242/1/ubicomp%202014%20p117-mancini%20animal%20welfare%20in%20kennels.pdf}}</ref> consent and power.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://interactions.acm.org/archive/view/july-august-2016/power-participation-and-the-dog-internet|title=Power, Participation, and the Dog Internet|last=Lawson|first=Shaun|date=August 2016|work=Interactions|access-date=23 Nov 2017|last2=Kirman|first2=Ben|pages=37|last3=Linehan|first3=Conor}}</ref>
