Research Interests
Doug A. Bowman is a Professor of Computer Science and Director of the Center for Human-Computer Interaction. He is the principal investigator of the 3D Interaction Group, focusing on the topics of three-dimensional user interface design and the effects of fidelity in virtual and augmented reality (VR and AR) systems. Dr. Bowman was the lead author of "3D User Interfaces: Theory and Practice," and served as the general chair of the IEEE Virtual Reality Conference in 2007-2008. He received a CAREER award from the National Science Foundation for his work on 3D Interaction, and has been named an ACM Distinguished Scientist. His undergraduate degree in mathematics and computer science is from Emory University, and he received his M.S. and Ph.D. in computer science from the Georgia Institute of Technology.
3D Interaction GroupURL: https://research.cs.vt.edu/3di/ 3DI stands for "three-dimensional interaction". Our research spans 3D user interfaces, interaction techniques, and applications, especially in the area of Virtual Environments (VE). Interaction in three dimensions is not well-understood, but is crucial to highly interactive VE applications like immersive education, scientific visualization, and immersive design. The mission of our lab is to perform both basic and applied research in three-dimensional (3D) interaction and VE technology, and to develop applications of VEs in a wide variety of domains. |
