Thanks to the effort of the Dean’s Office of Arts and Sciences, the Visualization and Virtual Reality Lab (led by Prof. Oyewole Oyekoya) has just acquired 30 Meta Quest 3 devices to enable teaching and research. This will also foster more research/teaching collaborations between Computer Science and the Humanities, e.g. Japanese program. The VR lab’s research focuses on studying the perceptual effects of Look-Alike Avatars in Virtual, Augmented and Mixed Reality Environments, with long term potential for 3D virtual learning, remote collaboration and telepresence.
