My primary research interests are in Human-Computer Interaction and Ubiquitous Computing. One current focus is the eye-computer interface, with interests in pervasive eye-tracking, automated analysis of visual behaviour, and novel interaction methods based on eye movement. I am also interested in spontaneous intreraction across devices, in particular with personal mobile devices on shared surfaces and public displays, and generally in devices and methods that enable interaction in novel and compelling ways.
I have PhD projects available on systems, devices and methods for Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). Topics of interest include:
The eye-computer interface: automated analysis of visual behaviour to support interaction
Spontaneous interaction across devices in public settings
Interaction with personal devices on shared surfaces
End-user mapping of indoor environments
Hans is a Professor of Interactive Systems. He has published widely on topics from location, context and activity sensing to devices and techniques for interaction, and is active in both the UbiComp/Pervasive and the CHI research community. Hans holds a PhD from the University of Karlsruhe in Germany.
