Emphasis
- Virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR)
- Human-machine and human-data interaction (HCI)
- Basics of perception and cognition
- Interactive visualization of data
Research topics
Our research in the area of virtual and augmented reality focuses on immersive analytics and novel interaction methods for VR/AR.
In terms of immersive analytics, we focus on the question as to when VR/AR is really needed for analyzing and visualizing data. For interaction, we specifically explore novel ways of how VR/AR might offer more natural ways to interact with data.
There is a close cooperation with the working groups of the Visualization Research Center (VISUS) and the other departments of VIS.
Teaching
Together with the other groups of the institute, we contribute teaching to the bachelor and master programs in computer science modules related to socio-cognitive systems. See our university website for more information on teaching.
