Human Computer/Machine Interaction
We work on Human Machine Interaction (HMI) or Human Computer Interaction (HCI). We design and develop novel modalities for interacting with a machine/product.
Automotive UI
We are working on Multimodal interaction and alert system for drivers in cars. We also work on driver distraction and cognitive load estimation of drivers.
Music Technology
We investigate different musical interfaces for artists to perform by being more expressive. We work on multi seonsory music and investigate music therapy for rehabilatation.
Robotics
We work on different interaction techniques with robots (HRI). We investigate interaction for Social bots, office bots and autonmous navigation bots.
New Media
We work on interactive and immersive art installations through which we experience the impact of technology on humans and society.
