We presented eight research projects at IEEE VR 2025, a premier conference in the field of XR, held in Saint-Malo, France, from March 8th to 12th, 2025.
Alumni Ms. Hu gave an oral presentation on her paper accepted for TVCG. Alumni Mr. Zhang also gave an oral presentation for his accepted full paper. Ryutaro Kurai (D2), Hiroki Ota (D1), Yuto Ohashi (M2), Carlos Paniagua (M2), and our collaborator Alexander Marquardt gave poster presentations. Postdoctoral researcher Julien Ducrocq exhibited a research demonstration.
