Dear all,
I am running out of superlatives to celebrate the achievements of our graduate students. Here are today’s news from the Queen’s School of Computing Human Media Lab graduate cohort:
1) Rob Dijkstra and Chris Perez received a CHI 2011 Honorable Mention Award for their paper “Evaluating Effects of Structural Holds on Pointing and Dragging Performance with Flexible Displays”. This is a great accomplishment at the top conference in Human Computer Interaction.
2) Chris Perez and Andrew Stephenson (supervised by Jim Cordy) had their demo “An inflatable hemispherical multi-touch display”, a CISC 878 graduate course project, selected as Top Demonstration at the Tangible, Embodied and Embedded Interaction 2011 conference in Madeira, Portugal.
Congratulations to Rob, Chris and Andrew, and to the HML Director Professor Roel Vertegaal. Keep up the excellent work!
Selim
