ARK Lab is led by Dr. Xin Tong at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou) in the thrust of Computational Media and Art (CMA). We conduct research in the field of human-computer interaction. Our current researches focus on digital human construction, VR/AR games, VR diagnosis for psychological and physical treatment, humanitarian and inclusive system design.
We designed a 360 VR videos-based system to depict real-life scenarios from a refugee camp with active and passive navigation.
The study aims to use virtual humans to teach children with autism to express themselves through a conversational manner.
StarRescue is a two-player collaborative tablet game that augments children’s attention paying to others, perspective-taking, and negotiation by visualizing the turn-taking collaboration process.
This study explores the privacy issues among families with autism by interviewing parents of children with autism.
We use machine learning algorithms to measure, predict and design interventions for stress and anxiety.
We explore the entangled habitation design concept to advocate a more-than-human perspective in human-nature interaction design.
