Research Interests

We are a group of researchers studying and teaching extended and virtual reality (XR/VR/AR) at the Department of Computer Science. Our research includes designing interaction techniques for XR, developing methods to evaluate user interfaces for XR, and experimental studies about human–computer interaction with XR. 

We are an interdisciplinary research group that strives to understand the nature and requirements of cooperative work in order to design collaborative computational artifacts and technologies. 

FemTech is a practice-based research programme that addresses the problem of how to facilitate inclusion in computing. We address this challenge by creating opportunities for people to engage in the development of interactive technologies, i.a. through workshops and events.

Our overall aim in health informatics is to research, design and prototype information systems that improve the quality and efficiency in healthcare. 

Our research focuses on new sensing and tracking technologies, information visualization, shape change, and mobile user interfaces. New and innovative designs are empirically studied in collaboration with potential users. In our research we strive to build on an understanding of human needs and capabilities.

We are a group of researchers studying, developing, and teaching digital fabrication technologies at the Department of Computer Science. Our research includes designing new software and hardware tools to design for and interact with digital fabrication machines and inventing new kinds of interfaces that can be built with digital fabrication machines.

Our aim is to ask the difficult questions about the data-driven technological directions our society is leaning towards. Questions in relations to ethical dilemmas about how and why we as individual citizens are taken there, and whether we really want our society to go in that direction.
