    Responsibilities

    I am a Professor in the Virtual Environments and Computer Graphics group in the Department of Computer Science, University College London. I am currently head of the group. My research area is real-time interactive virtual environments, with particular interest in virtual reality, augmented reality, novel forms of interaction, large-scale graphical models, collaborative systems and networking for tightly synchronous telecollaboration. Details of my active projects can be found here. The group runs a CAVE-like facility, a large tracking space and several other high-end virtual reality systems.

    I am first supervisor for several doctoral students: Jingyi Zhang, Kalila Shapiro, Lisa Izzouzi, Klara Brandstatter, Nels Numan, Dan Archer and Felix Thiel. I have three post-doctoral fellows: Ben Congdon, Daniele Giunchi and Sebastian Friston. Our labs are run by our senior researcher and technician David Swapp.

    My teaching responsibilities can be found here.

    I am currently deputy head of department. I have a responsibility for estates planning.

    I consult to a small number of companies in areas related to graphics or new media. See personal pages about me.

    I was director of the Engineering Doctorate Centre in Virtual Environment, Imaging and Visualisation from 2005- 2013 and 2014-2018.

    Jobs and Studentships

    I am always interested in discussing potential PhD topics. I am not actively recruiting for open positions now, but I will interested in talking with students who want to start in late 2022 or 2023. I am happy to receive applications  on topics related to 3D user interfaces, virtual reality, networked virtual reality, perceptual and cognitive issues in mixed reality, haptics and telepresence.
