Syllabus
  • Laboratory of Human-Computer Interaction is a team project focused on new forms of multisensual interaction based on virtual reality techniques. The work concentrates on algorithmic and system problems of graphic interfaces, position detection, haptic feed-back, and their interconnection into a functional system. This course is based on a team work of the students on a research-driven problems.
