CSE165: 3D User Interaction

Description

This course focuses on the design and evaluation of three-dimensional (3D) user interfaces, devices, and interaction techniques. The course consists primarily of lectures and hands-on programming. Students will be expected to implement several 3D interaction techniques as part of this course. This course is intended to lay the foundation for 3D user interaction as it can be applied to novel user interfaces for computer games and consumer electronics, as well as virtual and augmented reality applications. An important aspect of the course are going to be programming assignments involving 3D interaction devices, which are going to be provided to the students in the computer lab. These devices will include the Microsoft Kinect, which allows gesture control, the Razer Hydra, which allows high-precision 3D interactions, and maybe the Leap, which allows for finger gestures. We will use the C++ programming language and the OpenSceneGraph programming API, which builds on OpenGL.
