One of the basic components of computer systems is the interaction between human users and the systems. Good interaction does not only provide enjoyable experiences but also increase productivity and efficiency.
A field that focuses on developing computer interactions is called Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). This course is part of HCI, yet emphasizing on the technological aspects rather than the human aspects.
The course focuses on different types of interaction technology. You will be working on embedded technology, Internet of Things (IoT) and gesture based interaction in assignments.
Course form
2 x 2 hour lectures per week, practical and exercise classes. The practical assignments involves programming in C++.
Study material
Handouts and reading materials will be provided. Students will have to acquire some hardware components, with a cost of approximately 50 ~ 55 euros per student.
