(Kane, Shaun Kevin - 2016) -- Sloan Research Fellowship-Computer Science
Overview
description
Professor Kane is director of CU Boulder’s Superhuman Computing Lab, a research group in the Department of Computer Science devoted to research on accessible, mobile and wearable technologies. In particular, the lab focuses on projects that enhance people’s physical, sensory and creative abilities. Among the questions he and his team are considering: how do we make new personal fabrication devices such as 3D printers more accessible to novice users, hobbyists and people with disabilities? And, how can we design mobile and wearable computing equipment to support users on the go, especially when those users are working in distracting environments?
