Complex Practical Course Multimodal Interaction

Contents

Each semester, we are offering a variety of practical tasks that can be accomplished during a complex practical course. You may credit these courses in different modules of the offered computer science programmes.

General Course Goals

Both complex pratical courses Human-Computer Interaction as well as Multimodal Interaction should allow you to improve your skills and deepen your knowledge about multimodal interaction techniques, user-centered design methods and software technologies. You will get the opportunity to get insights in current research projects to learn more about and engage in state-of-the-art research fields.

Your required skills:

• Basic knowledge about object-oriented programming (OOP), development environments, version control and software technology
• Interest in the field of Human-Computer Interaction
• Capacity for teamwork

You can learn:

You will improve your programming skills and experience in designing user interfaces. You will get insights in a broad variety of research fields within the area of Human-Computer Interaction with focus on users with special needs due to impairments such as blind and partially-sighted people. You will learn how to work with prototypical innovative applications and devices.

Place and Time

This course will be organised online for the most part (see OPAL course below).

Information on the first appointment to get to know the available topics or task assignments will be made available via the corresponding OPAL course. We will very likely organise the topic presentation on-site or in hybrid mode. The exact date and time will be sent as notification within the OPAL course.
