Projects
Input and Interaction in Virtual Reality using wearable devices
Input and interaction in Virtual Reality (VR) remains a challenge. We are developing and evaluating digital finger wearable devices to advance input and interaction in VR.
Mid-air Gestures Augmented with Ultrasonic Haptic Feedback
Midair interaction presents an intuitive way to interact with computer systems. However, mid-air gestures lack haptic feedback. We are developing and evaluating mid-air interaction methods augmented with ultrasonic haptic feedback.
Text entry in Virtual Reality
Virtual reality (VR) is gaining use. However, entering text in VR remains a challenge. Therefore, we are currently developing and evaluating text entry techniques for VR.
Virtual art gallery with augmented reality
This was a project I did during my undergraduate studies under the supervision of Sibangiso Ngwenya. We developed a virtual art gallery which has an augmented reality (AR) functionality, a first in in Zimbabwe. The web based virtual art gallery allows the display of Zimbabwean artifacts in 3D on the web with an option to auction them. Furthermore, the AR functionality allows users to superimpose the artifacts on their real world to visualize how they would look like in a real setting.
Augmented and Virtual reality based interfaces for choreography design
This was a project I did for my M.Sc. studies under the supervision of Gökhan İnce. We developed interfaces that allow choreographers to design choreography. We evaluated these interfaces and concluded that the users performed faster on the AR interface, furthermore, the ability to use both physical and digital objects fascinated users choreographers.
