MoveIT – Modeling the Speed/Accuracy Trade-Off of Human Aimed Movement with the Tools of Information Theory
-
Partners: Univ. Paris-Sud, Inria, CNRS, Institut Mines-Telecom
-
Abstract: The goal of this project is to conduct fundamental studies of aimed movements based on information theory. The project studies the interaction phenomena involved in pointing, in order to discover novel, more effective pointing techniques. This project funds Wanyu Liu, a joint Ph.D. student between the COMELEC and VIA groups at Institut Mines Telecom and ExSitu. Wanyu defended her thesis in November 2018 [35] and received an Honorable Mention award for her CHI 2018 paper [22].
An Augmented-Reality System for Collaborative Physical Modeling and Design
-
Abstract: The goal of the project is to develop an augmented-reality system to support collaboration over 3D models and enhance digital-fabrication approaches. It is a collaboration with the AVIZ group and provides funding (8k) for equipment.
Le Plateau des Recherches Infinies
-
Abstract: The goal of this project (30k) is to create an interactive installation presenting the portraits of a hundred researchers from Université Paris-Saclay. It is a collaboration with portrait photographer Didier Goupy. The installation is designed to be exhibited in various sites of Université Paris-Saclay until it is permanently installed in the Learning Center of Université Paris-Saclay. This project supported Swati Swati, an intern, for two months over the summer. The project was presented at the Fête de la Science in October, 2018, and will be permanently exhibited in the future Learning Center of Université Paris-Saclay.
