The Intelligent Inclusive Interaction Design (I3D) Lab undertakes research in the field of human computer interaction, intelligent user interfaces, eXtended Reality (XR) and inclusive design. Existing sponsored and student projects considered new interaction techniques for people with different range of abilities, automotive and military aviation environments. Previous research explored user modelling for people with wide range of abilities and developing new interactive systems involving eye gaze, head, hand and finger movement trackers.
