Core topics

01

Immersive Media and Extended Reality (XR): Design, Evaluation, and Impact

We develop and evaluate interactive XR systems to understand and improve user experience, trust, and engagement in virtual and augmented environments. Our work spans applications in education, tourism, public spaces, and collaborative tasks.
02

Digital Health Technologies and Assistive Systems

Our research focuses on designing user-centered digital health solutions—including tablet apps, intelligent agents, and XR-based interventions—to support diagnostics, therapy, and everyday health management, particularly for older adults and vulnerable populations.
03

Psychophysiological and Multimodal Quality Assessment

We use EEG, eye tracking, and other biosignals to investigate how people perceive and respond to digital content. This enables objective assessment of quality, emotion, and cognitive load, and informs standards in user experience research.

About the lab

XR / Spatial Interaction / Experience Measurement

The Immersive Reality Lab develops and evaluates extended reality systems, digital health technologies, and psychophysiological assessment methods. We combine human-centered design, controlled evaluation, and multimodal sensing to deliver reproducible research outcomes for healthcare, education, and public-sector innovation.
