Description | Free and open to all; please RSVP using the Sign Up button above. "Creative Immersion" talk by Professor Thomas A. Furness: same day at 7:30pm, room 327/329 Exhibition runs from Monday, March 11, through Monday, March 18, 2019. Jacob Lawrence Gallery hours are Tuesday–Friday, 10am–5pm, and Saturday, 1–5pm. This exhibition showcases recent augmented reality and virtual reality (AR/VR) projects from students in the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering and the Interaction Design Program in the Division of Design, School of Art + Art History + Design. Principal Lecturer Barbara Mones (CSE) and Associate Professor Axel Roesler (IxD) have overseen the projects. AR/VR marks a new frontier in the visualization and experience of three-dimensional (3D) content. Commercially available head-mounted displays such as Microsoft’s HoloLens and Oculus Go make advanced 3D displays available to the general public so that we can now imagine displays without borders, screens that are not constrained by rectangular frames, three-dimensional holograms that serve as augmented visual structure and novel interaction elements, and, ultimately, a mixed reality that integrates virtual elements into physical environments. What are the new immersive experiences that designers, artists, and technologists are currently creating that will transform head mounted displays into the line of sight interface of the future?
