Ultimate Empathy Machine
Virtual reality represents a giant leap forward in mankind’s propensity for compassion. You don’t just walk in someone’s shoes, but see the world through their eyes. In essence, a virtual reality headset is an empathy machine.
Examples:
- Visual Impairment simulator In a realistic scenario with common tasks we compare the quality of different simulation techniques for visual impairments. Especially the influence on empathy of virtual reality scenarios with HMDs are investigated.
- Implicit Racial Bias In an action-based metric we evaluate implicit racial bias and will develop body swapping techniques to lower such biases.
