Limitations in human information processing have been well documented, though remain less understood in terms of how cognitive systems adapt to information processing constraints. To address this challenge, a growing body ...

A major focus of research into visually guided action (VGA) is the identification of control strategies that map optical information to actions. The traditional approach to this research has been to test the behavioral ...

Previous research has examined the relationship between playing video games and different cognitive abilities. This dissertation investigated if playing the video game Tetris leads to enhanced cognitive abilities as measured ...

In this thesis, we investigate the application of sensing technology to scenarios including large scale immersive environments, industrial robot workspaces, and domestic environments. We design frameworks that tackle the ...
