Visual-HCI
Human Computer Interaction
China & Czech Collaboration

The Visual-HCI project is a mobility project to support research activities in the fields of Computer Graphics, Visualization and Virtual Reality with application of Projective Geometry, Geometric Algebra and Conformal Geometry.

The Visual-HCI project is an extension of activities

• Computer Graphics & Computer Vision with Geometric Algebra & Conformal Geometry
• NECPA: Non-Euclidean Computation and Algorithms
