OVERVIEW

The teaching consists of two independent modules of 6 credits each, aimed at providing principles and methods for the design of user interfaces characterised by multimodal full-body interaction, embodiment and immersiveness in non-verbal interaction, gamification and game design, virtual, augmented, and extented reality applications.

AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

In the first module, after an introductory part on human perception (visual psychophysics, psychoacoustics, haptic perception, multimodal integration), and an introduction of sensor systems, the course introduces techniques to support the development process of interaction design for multimodal interfaces, with a focus on usability and quality of experience. The course is characterized by exercises and examples in the framework of real world application scenarios.

Objective of the second module is to provide students with the knowledge on the fundamentals of 3D graphics and animation and practical skills to build simple applications and systems based on simulation in virtual / mixed / augmented reality and gamification. The fundamental objectives of this module involve both make students aware of the necessary interdisciplinary approach of contributions from the mobile programming, from biomechanics, from sensory perception, from robotics and video games in order to create natural user interfaces (NUI), both in providing the instruments suitable for the design of software applications based on stereoscopic 3D and Virtual/Augmented/Extende Reality.
