Presentation: Think outside the screen! — Veronica Furukawa

/* Tonight's Presentation Summary: */

For generations the screen has dominated our daily lives. The time has arrived for mass adoption of 3D technologies. However, UI/UX is still a major hurdle in creating a truly immersive experience, as designers are failing to adapt to the unique challenges posed.

We will discuss how to move away from the hamburger menu and into a fully virtual experience using human computer interaction principles such as spacial audio, haptic feedback, intuitive UI, eye-tracking, and virtual reality sickness. We will also discuss hardware limitations and how designers and developers can provide engaging experiences en mass.
