Human-Computer Interaction as a research field serves both aspects of technology &#8211; developing novel technologies to assist humankind and understanding the ways people use technologies in order to improve them. In this talk we are going to present research from both aspects of technology that crosses several disciplines from using augmented reality for education, persuasive technologies to help professional learners on their learning journey, using technology to augment our senses in order to understand the world around us in ways not experienced before, understanding why digital information is vulnerable, and how to help users to understand what they agree to when using technology.<\/p>\n<p>Lecturer: Klen \u010dopi\u010d Puvihar<br \/>\nTitle: What is Augmented in Augemnted Reality<\/p>\n<p>Abstract:<br \/>\n<em>\u201cIf reality is everything that exists then reality cannot be augmented since it is already everything. What we augment is our perception of reality.&#8221; [O.Hugues]\u00a0<\/em><br \/>\nIn this talk we will explore different perceptual issues focusing on handheld augmented reality (AR) systems and highlight how these issues affect their usability. We will start by exploring the dual-view perceptual problem caused by standard handheld AR implementation (e.g. rendering the video stream captured by the back-facing camera onto the device\u2019s screen) which shows the real world from the device\u2019s perspective rather than that of the user. We will show how this affects users\u2019 performance and demonstrate different ways in which one can ameliorate this problem. In the second part we will look at depth perception problem whilst focusing on the case study of transcribing contours and volumetric data to real environment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/body><div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-506 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/dist.famnit.upr.si\/index.php\/2017\/10\/05\/dist-professors-givi\/6.jpg\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/dist.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/6-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/dist.famnit.upr.si\/index.php\/2017\/10\/05\/dist-professors-givi\/5.jpg\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/dist.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/5-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/dist.famnit.upr.si\/index.php\/2017\/10\/05\/dist-professors-givi\/3.jpg\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/dist.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/3-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/dist.famnit.upr.si\/index.php\/2017\/10\/05\/dist-professors-givi\/0.jpg\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/dist.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/0-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/dist.famnit.upr.si\/index.php\/2017\/10\/05\/dist-professors-givi\/7.jpg\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/dist.famnit.upr.si\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/7-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Assistant professors Matja\u017e Kljun and Klen \u010copi\u010d Pucihar gave lectures to masters and PhD students at the Graduate School of Information Science at Nara Institute of Science and Technology in Japan.
