Jeremy Hartmann recently defended his PhD dissertation in the Cheriton School of Computer Science, where he worked with the Human Computer Interaction Lab under the supervision of professor Daniel Vogel.

Now, Hartmann has launched a new venture, which offers virtual reality streaming services to gamers as well as a virtual club house.

Computer science undergraduate students (l-r) Nicholas Vadivelu, Kelvin Jiang, Sourav Biswas, and Vikram Subramanian were named in the annual CRA awards program.

Applications are now open for students in the Faculty of Mathematics to enroll in the Zero program.

In October, two students linked to the Faculty of Mathematics participated in a unique autonomous racecar event at the famed Indianapolis Speedway, in which their hopes were dashed when their car crashed.

A team of computer scientists has developed a new system that recognizes near-keyboard hand gestures to expand laptop interaction.

The new technology is an innovation in the field of human-computer interaction and allows users to give commands that would otherwise involve keyboard shortcuts or mouse round-trips.

The Math Faculty Ambassador team is set to launch the first episodes of a new podcast focused on University of Waterloo Mathematics and their experiences as students.

Anthony Ilersich, a fourth-year computing and financial management student, is part of a team that developed a game to help kids overcome fears and anxiety about getting needles for vaccines.

Ilersich completed a co-op work placement with Immunize Canada, and then stayed on with the organization to support the launch of the video game, CARD.
