Research
Understanding and creating novel embodied experiences of interaction is at the center of our research. We work with multisensory feedback and immersion to challenge and push forward the current ideas of interactivity, both in academic and everyday life contexts. Our main research areas are Embodied Interaction, Immersive Experience and Health Interaction. Lecturers and academic staff, as well as BA and MA students develop diverse design research frameworks, often with interdisciplinary cooperation partners. Interaction Design at ZHdK maintains a Physical Computing Lab, the Immersive Experience Lab and the Enactive Environments Lab.
