16.01.2022 Today 12 of our honors and masters students presented their research seminars on a variety of topics including virtual reality, augmented reality, and lifelogging. They reported on their research topic and progress made to date. They have another semester to finish the projects that will include running user studies and writing a thesis. Hopefully, some of these projects will also be published in peer-reviewed venues.

14.01.2022 Our paper published at IEEE Virual Reality this year is now available online. Here we presented a cognitively adaptive training system in virtual reality using EEG. We are further pursuing this research area and would love to collaborate if this is an are that interests you.
