Uprooting beets on an augmented reality farm could soon help recovering stroke victims improve their motor skills if a team of human-computer interaction students receives enough votes by tomorrow night. The team of three Carnegie Mellon HCI students behind Wabbit, one of only ten finalists remaining in the National Geographic CHASING GENIUS: UNLIMITED INNOVATION idea challenge, is currently in fourth place.
Three HCII projects were recognized with four of Fast Company’s Innovation by Design 2021 Awards.
Engaging students through interactive activities, discussions, feedback and AI-enhanced technologies resulted in improved academic performance compared to traditional lectures, lessons or readings, faculty from Carnegie Mellon University's Human-Computer Interaction Institute concluded after collecting research into active learning.
Five graduate students at Carnegie Mellon University's School of Computer Science have received Siebel Scholars awards for 2022. Karan Ahuja, Priya Donti, Yasmine Kotturi, Ryan Shi and Kayo Yin will each receive $35,000 as part of the program.
The Carnegie Science Center will honor Jessica Hammer for using games to tackle challenging problems and promote STEM education.

The Human-Computer Interaction Institute invites companies, startups and nonprofits alike to sponsor a Capstone project for HCI students. Our MHCI Program is currently seeking client commitments for their 2022 Capstone projects that will begin in January.
Capstone partnerships give students the invaluable experience of working on a real-world project while project sponsors receive hundreds of hours of skilled research and development.

SCS Researchers Part of Best Paper Effort at CHI 2021
A team at Apple analyzed nearly 78,000 screenshots from more than 4,000 apps to improve the screen reader function on its mobile devices. The result was Screen Recognition, a tool that uses machine learning and computer vision to automatically detect and provide content readable by VoiceOver for apps that would otherwise not be accessible.
Award-winning game designer Jessica Hammer will soon level up when she takes on the role of interim associate director of the Human-Computer Interaction Institute in Carnegie Mellon University's School of Computer Science.
