Collablab: The Collaborative Technology Laboratory
About
At the CollabLab, we are interested in understanding and designing systems capable of supporting group interactions and communication in a variety of contextual environments. Our current research programs span a number of areas from understanding how various forms of visual information influence our social interactions to developing dynamic visualizations of interaction patterns in online environments to building computational models that account for real-time contextual information to support interaction.
