Dr. Grubert’s research interests include interaction with mobile and wearable multi display ecologies (including smartwatches and smartglasses), multimodal Mixed Reality (Augmented and Virtual Reality) and cross-media interaction. He also investigated the utility of optical see-through head-mounted displays for industrial usage scenarios such as order picking. Dr. Gruber advocates active learning and lectures distributed systems, computer graphics, virtual reality, human-computer interaction and information visualization.

Dr. Lindeman’s research focuses on making virtual reality more realistic, and supporting effective interaction techniques in immersive virtual environments. In particular, I'm interested in these main research thrusts: supporting long-term exposure to VR, providing multi-sensory feedback in VR, allowing people to get real work done using effective interaction techniques, and, Immersive applied gaming as a motivation for things like learning, training, behaviour change, and health.

Dr. Marshal is an associate professor at the Institute for Research in Computer Science and Random Systems; the largest French research laboratory in the field of computer science and information technology. Her main research interests include: physically-based simulation, haptic feedback, 3D interactions, virtual reality and medical applications. She received a PhD in Computer Science in 2006 from University Joseph Fourier in Grenoble. In 2007 she was at University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada, and was at INRIA Lille, France, in 2008.

Dr. Olivier’s research focuses on visuo-motor coordination during physical interactions between individuals in the context of locomotion and sports situations. This work consists both in the description of the adaptations put in place by individuals to interact together, and in the highlighting of important signs of the movement of the other that an individual perceives during this interaction. Her work is based on a transdisciplinary experimental approach combining movement and digital sciences, drawing on innovative techniques involving virtual reality.

Dr. Skarbez’s research interests broadly refer to how humans experience and interact with immersive technologies, and specifically include virtual reality, human factors, user experience design, visualization, and immersive analytics. His research has focused on Presence and Plausibility Illusion in virtual environments, and is committed to investigating the effects of realistic behavior, not just realistic imagery, on the effectiveness of practical virtual environments.
