Multimedia research in the Graphics, Visualization, and Usability Center is concerned with the uses of various "non-traditional" media to enhance human-human and human-computer communication. Our interests cover a broad spectrum, including shared media spaces, multimedia electronic mail, workstation support for digital audio and video, multimedia databases, and non-visual computer interfaces.

Current Research Projects

• Cognitive multimedia support environments
• Mercator - A nonvisual interface to X Window applications
• Multimedia & Web courseware for Computer Science
• Spatial Sound - A system for synthetically spatializing sound sources
