This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Haptic and Audio Interaction Design, HAID 2008 held in Jyväskylä, Finland, in September 2008. The 13 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The papers are organized in topical sections on visual impairment, applications of multimodality, evaluation, conceptual integration of audio and haptics, interaction techniques, and perception.
