We will discuss their potential impact on the way we think about computers and the way we interact with them. The subject will provide an introduction to advanced human-computer interfaces such as Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Tangible User Interface (TUI) technologies. Interface design principles will be reviewed from human factors and technological perspectives. Hardware, software, and design aspects of virtual interfaces will be investigated. We will also learn about these virtual interfaces designed and implemented in medicine, education, design and entertainment. Hands-on experience will be provided through a series of tutorial sessions to provide basic skills on using different tools to develop students' own simple interface applications. Completing this subject will provide you with an opportunity to obtain the Unity Certified User: VR Developer professional industry certification via completion of a certification exam.
