In the coming ACM ISS Conference, together with my students and collaborators, we are presenting two papers: 1. Study how layout dimensionality differences affect collaborative asymmetric (PC+VR) decision-making. 2. An exploratory study about the use of AR+Tablet as a hybrid environment.


Congrats to my former master's student Virginia Tech Computer Science Virginia Tech CHCI, Daniel, now a PhD student at Cornell Tech. He led the study about asymmetric (PC+VR) collaborative decision-making. Along with amazing collaborators: Wai Tong, Chris N, Huamin Q! Check the details: dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/36…
