Synopsis

Humans perform physical tasks with abundant multimodal information from visual, auditory, tactile, and more senses. Mainstream computers still offer very limited input and output capabilities when interacting with the users (e.g., multitouch gestures, speech input). This course provides project-based knowledge on human sensory perception & cognition and technologies that accommodate these, including topics on eye-tracking, auditory UI, robotic touch interfaces. Students will conduct user studies and develop software-hardware systems that explore and leverage multimodal interaction in these projects. Later in the course, students will explore an open-ended research project guided by the instructor.

Prerequisites

Basic programming skills are required.
