Augmented Human-Computer Interaction group

About us

Our people, our research
OVERVIEW​

We are a Research Group of ICAR-CNR.

The main goal of the AHCI research group is to introduce artificial intelligence techniques into interaction design, pursuing the definition of an “augmented” human-machine interaction paradigm. The main application scenario is the intelligent surgery, to empower the surgical team in the operating room.
The combination of interaction models and techniques and ad hoc artificial intelligence algorithms has to:
i) enable mechanisms of multi-modal natural interaction (gestural, vocal, bio-feedback, etc.) in augmented, virtual and mixed reality environments;ii) allow the learning of user interaction patterns and therefore the design of highly personalised interaction solutions based on user preferences or any cognitive and/or motor disabilities.

A long story short

Our research group’s mission is to advance knowledge in our areas of expertise and to create real-world impact. We take a multidisciplinary approach to research, drawing on insights from diverse fields to tackle complex problems, mainly in the healthcare and cultural heritage domains. We are constantly seeking new collaborations and partnerships, and working with other organizations is crucial to our success.

Some reasons to work with us
The group’s research activities focus on designing and experimenting with intelligent virtual and augmented reality environments and advanced interfaces for human-machine interaction, modelled for specific uses and users.
The Augmented Human-Computer Interaction research group of ICAR-CNR aims to take advantage of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques to improve the user experience and to optimize the AI itself. AI can help in adapting the interfaces to individual users/scenarios and can enable the design of bio-feedback powered virtual environments.
