Empathic Computing Lab

June 4th, 2025

Empathic computing investigates how technology can support collaboration, shared understanding and human-centered interaction. In this lab, student teams design and develop their own projects using immersive and pervasive media—ranging from XR headsets and smartphones to tablets, laptops, and wearable devices. Projects may leverage open standards like WebXR, or use engines such as Unity, depending on the goals and platforms chosen. The focus is on creating meaningful, responsive experiences through thoughtful interaction design and emerging technologies.
