Since April 2012, Raimund Dachselt has been a Full Professor of Computer Science and head of the Interactive Media Lab at the Technische Universität Dresden, Germany. Prof. Dachselt received his PhD in 2004 from TU Dresden and was professor for User Interface & Software Engineering at University of Magdeburg from 2007 to 2012. His research interests are natural human computer interaction (HCI), interactive information visualization, and Mixed Reality interaction. He worked extensively in the area of interactive surfaces from smartwatches over tablets and tabletops to wall-sized displays (also combined in multi-display environments) and combined interaction modalities (e.g., multi-touch and pen, tangible displays, gaze-supported interaction, body gestures).
He has published more than 170 peer-reviewed publications, co-authored two major German textbooks on HCI and received five Best Paper Awards, three Best Paper Honorable Mentions, and three Best Demo and Poster Awards at leading international HCI and visualization conferences. For details on publication metrics see his Google Scholar profile.
Dachselt is a member of several computer societies, has co-organized 16 international workshops at ACM and IEEE conferences, and is a steering committee member of ACM ISS. He repeatedly served as a co-chair (general, program, doctoral symposium, demo, publicity, keynote chair) and PC member for top international HCI conferences and was guest editor of several special journal issues. Between 2010 and 2013 he also served as the European coordinator of the EU-funded transatlantic exchange project LEIF with eight Canadian and European Universities.
