Description

The Computer Graphics and User Interfaces Lab does research in the design of 3D and 2D user interfaces, including augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), and mobile and wearable systems, for people interacting individually and together, indoors and outdoors. We use a range of displays and devices: head-worn, hand-held, and table-top, including Varjo XR-3, HoloLens 2, and Magic Leap 2, in addition to consumer headsets such as Meta Quest 3. Multidisciplinary projects potentially involve working with faculty and students in other schools and departments, from medicine and dentistry to earth and environmental sciences and social work.

Required Skills

We're looking for students who have done excellent work in one or more of the following courses or their equivalents elsewhere: COMS W4160 (Computer graphics), COMS W4170 (User interface design), COMS W4172 (3D user interfaces and augmented reality), and COMS E6173 (Topics in VR & AR), and who have software design and development expertise. For those projects involving 3D user interfaces, we're especially interested in students with Unity experience
