HCI PhD student @mollyn_paan & advisor @hciprof trained cameras in a standard AR/VR headset to recognize touches mimicking touchscreen gestures on skin areas like the arm and hand. The duo is also exploring opportunities with other applications & surfaces. #UIST2024 @SCSatCMU
Researchers in @cmuhcii are revolutionizing AR/VR interfaces at the tip of a finger – literally. ☝️ EgoTouch uses AI to turn your skin into a touch-sensitive control surface, making virtual reality more intuitive and immersive. ➡️ cmu.is/EgoTouch youtu.be/5Nc39c8GJlQ?si…
In a @newscientist article, @VickiTurk cites recent work from a research team featuring Professor Sauvik Das (@scyrusk) of @CyLab and @cmuhcii that investigated common datasets used to train generative audio #AI: newscientist.com/article/245574…

somehow I hadn’t noticed that TSA wait times at @PITairport are powered by Zensors! This was originally based on a couple of papers we wrote — great to see how it’s still going! cs.cmu.edu/~jbigham/pubs/… cs.cmu.edu/~jbigham/pubs/…
Back in Pittsburgh after an unforgettable #ASSETS24! Excited that WheelPoser won the Best Student Paper Award — a true team effort with my amazing collaborators @mollyn_paan, @KuangYuan3, and @justpac. It was wonderful meeting so many lovely people. See you in Denver next year!
Soon will be heading to #ASSETS24 to present “WheelPoser: Sparse-IMU Based Body Pose Estimation for Wheelchair Users”, done with my awesome collaborators @mollyn_paan, @KuangYuan3, and @justpac! (1/7)
