The Affective Computing and Multimodal Interaction group studies various forms of interaction, in addition to the classical screen-based visual mode. Some considered interaction modalities are haptic, auditory, and based on physiological signals.
Research topics:
User emotional assessment
Assessment of users emotional states by using multimodal physiological signals
Movie affective characterization using physiological signals and content analysis
Emotion Awareness Tools for Mediated Interaction (EATMINT)
Interaction for visually impaired and blind people
Modality conversion and visual data sonification
Eyewalker
A smart walker for senior citizens
Brain-Computer Interface
Interaction between the user and the computer, using only electrical brain information (i.e. without using the motor system, unlike keyboard or mouse).
3D brain activity reconstruction
Stochastic approaches for determining active brain areas, based on direct and inverse solutions.
