Advanced Topics in Human Centered Computing focused on the latest research in the field of HCI. We read several papers per class session and were tasked with writing three papers to demonstrate our understanding. I wrote a literature review on the current state of typing-based input methods for Virtual and Augmented Reality. Additionally, I designed an experiment proposal to investigate how people interact differently with anthropomorphic interfaces and wrote technical evaluations of several recently published papers related to ubiquitous design in computing.
