Mission confiée
The world is flat and rectangular when IT comes to the types of physical screens that we use for representing data and making decisions. Display technology, however, is already evolving quickly : curved, bendable, and highly flexible displays, spherical displays, cubed displays, and even drone-based displays have emerged and are commercially available. These novel types of displays offer new ways to represent and explore data embedded in everyday environments, to communicate IT, and share IT. For a possible future in which non-planar displays will BE ubiquitous, however, there are open questions about what visualizations should look like on these displays, how we would interact with them, and how people would engage with them. Non-planar displays, therefore, not only pose perceptual challenges for data visualization, but IT is also yet largely unexplored which visualization types work on them and how to create effective and appealing interactive data visualization experiences. As such, the potential and the challenges of these displays for visual data representation remain unexplored. There are two PhD projects part of a larger international funded project that aims to escape from the display flatland that characterizes today's research in visualization. IT will establish foundations for how to engage with a future in which physical displays take on several different form factors and become truly embedded in our environments.
As part of this research there are two PhD topics to choose from (we will consider dual-career couples).
See the full proposal for more information :
Principales activités
Both PhD topics will lead to high-quality scientific publications in the domain of visualization and/or human-computer interaction (IEEE VIS, IEEE TVCG, ACM CHI, etc) and presented in relevant conferences. In addition, the students will BE involved in dissemination activities around the constructed prototypes in public forums such as open research days, workshops, etc.
