THE INTERACTION LAB

We research computer-supported cooperation, next-generation interfaces, digital games, esports, affective computing, and information visualization.

Games
Research

Investigating and evaluating digital game play experiences and phenomena.

Affective
Computing

Exploring and building systems that interact with user emotional states.

Information Visualization

Advancing the display of complex data for the benefit of human interpretation.

Next-Generation Interfaces

Driving innovations in interfaces that change how we interact with digital systems.

Our Lab

The Interaction Lab is a research collective in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada.
