Welcome to the Human-Computer Interaction Group
Our goal is to conceive, develop and evaluate novel concepts for human-computer interaction that dissolve the user interface as a barrier between real and virtual, and instead allow the user to seamlessly transition between different realities. We call this extended form of interaction “Embodied Cross-Reality Interaction” and the supporting user interfaces “Transitional Interfaces.” Such interfaces support crossing between different realities: from being in the physical world and using our existing cognitive and bodily skills, to gradually moving into a virtual reality with more advanced or “magical” skills, and back again.

Talk of Prof. Vivien Petras: ‘Searching Cultural Heritage – Heterogeneity as a Challenge and as a Key’
On Friday, January 20, Prof. Vivien Petras from the Information Science Research Community will present latest research about searching in cultural heritage information systems.
Abstract
Every domain presents different challenges for search environments. Heterogeneity in many variations (content types, data quality, multilinguality, audiences) is the unifying challenge of all cultural heritage information systems. This talk will discuss Europeana, the European digital library, museum and archive, as a case study for cultural heritage portals and introduce domain-specific interaction scenarios for this environment, which differ from general web search. It will present challenges we have identified in integrating cultural heritage resources in a search environment and discuss implementation solutions such as data enrichment, multilingual non-textual information access components that promise improvements but may also introduce other pitfalls.
