International XR Workshop

Staff and students from the HCI Group and Computational Media Innovation Centre (CMIC) at Victoria University of Wellington, Empathic Computing Lab at University of Auckland, and HITLabNZ at University of Canterbury organized the International XR Workshop in Wellington, New Zealand from 18-21 February 2020. The XR Workshop combined taught lectures with hands-on project work with XR technology and HMDs (e.g. HTC Vive, Occulus Rift/Quest, Magic Leap, Hololens) and a variety of physiological sensors and input devices. Attendees worked in small groups to each complete an example project by the end of the week. This was a unique opportunity to learn how to develop XR applications from world leading experts in the field. It was my pleasure to be able to attend this workshop to learn about extended realities and gain skills in unity.
