- This $300,000 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) supports research at New York University to develop efficient computer systems for augmented and virtual reality through a perception-guided approach. Specifically, the researchers will design software-hardware mechanisms to quantitatively model human visual perception and leverage those models across system stacks to achieve an order of magnitude gain in...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will support the development of immersive virtual reality (VR) laboratory environments that feature high-fidelity interactive avatars and tactile feedback. The goal is to enable collaborative learning in online STEM education that replicates the hands-on, embodied experiences of physical laboratories. Specifically, the $300,000 project will investigate how VR labs enhanced with realistic...
- This $479,999 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) aims to develop algorithms and interfaces that enable easier and more effective 3D modeling, even without visual cues. The key objectives are to create: 1) accurate "in-air" 3D drawing tools, 2) sonification techniques for non-visual shape perception and editing, and 3) verbal 3D shape editing tools and interactions. This...
- The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $300,000 Project Grant to Arizona State University under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) on January 1, 2024. The grant supports a 3-year collaborative research project to develop novel hardware platforms and algorithms for fusing optical and ultrasonic sensors to enhance computer vision and computational imaging capabilities. The key products and services to be delivered include: New rendering...
- This $600,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) supports research at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to develop theoretical frameworks and computational methods for reconstructing complex 3D shapes using neural implicit representations. The key objectives are to enable the reconstruction of 3D shapes with intricate topologies, such as objects with holes, and to allow...
- This Project Grant award of $600,000.00 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) program supports research on a new class of "weak 3D cameras" that can efficiently capture simplified geometric representations of environments for real-time applications. The project aims to develop compact, low-power 3D vision systems that can reliably operate in challenging real-world conditions, leveraging new geometric...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) provides $199,974 to San Francisco State University (SFSU) to acquire virtual reality (VR) equipment and resources. The project, titled "VRMAS: VR Maker Space," aims to strengthen undergraduate learning in STEM education, particularly in computer science and engineering courses at SFSU and across the 23-campus California State University system. The award will fund 10 VR workstations...
- This three-year, $1.7 million project grant from the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program aims to advance virtual learning environments through olfactory integration. Arizona State University will develop portable hardware and software to reliably synthesize virtual odors for delivery in real-time 3D environments. Researchers will design tools for virtual odor space development and model complex odor propagation. The project seeks to understand...
- This $1,886,515 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will support the development of "KonnectXR", an enterprise-level platform that integrates immersive extended reality (XR) technologies into technician education programs. The project aims to: Integrate single sign-on and FERPA-compliant encryption capabilities to enable seamless interoperability between XR environments and existing Learning Management Systems (LMS)...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program project grant, awarded on July 1, 2024 for $750,000, funds the design and development of an innovative "Scan to Multi-Sensorial Interactive Learning Environment" (SMILE) infrastructure. The key products and services to be delivered include: The project will involve sub-awards to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, New Jersey Institute of Technology, and Dallas College to develop the multi-modal protocols, streaming services, and collaborate on VR environment construction and testing.
