We’re an interdisciplinary group of researchers at the University of Maryland’s Human-Computer Interaction Lab (HCIL).

Our goal is to make the next generation of computing technologies more inclusive. We focus primarily on new mobile and wearable technologies—from touchscreens to head-mounted displays to custom wearable devices—both for broad use as well as for the needs of people with motor or visual impairments. Another thread of our work focuses on the intersection of HCI and machine learning.
