Abstract:

Touch interfaces are used in a large number of ubiquitous computers; however, they reduce the users' input to simple points on a 2D touch-sensitive plane. This is in stark contrast to the richness of how humans interact with the physical world. In my work, I study and build the interfaces for the next generation of computing systems by considering the humans' full physiology potential while respecting social and ergonomic constraints. I show how to go from simple interaction to hand- and body-aware interactions.

Biography:

Sven Mayer is an assistant professor for HCI at the LMU Munich. In his research, he uses machine learning tools to design, build, and evaluate future human-centered interfaces. He focuses on hand- and body-aware interactions in contexts, such as large displays, augmented and virtual reality, and mobile scenarios.
