Overview
Key facts
Since its inception, ergonomics has helped make technological advancement and innovation more accessible to humankind. Recent years have seen a real paradigm shift in the field of cognitive ergonomics, which studies the interaction between the human cognitive system and information processing tools. As technology develops, the creation of virtual and immersive environments presents fresh difficulties for anybody wishing to research human-machine interaction in these settings.
University of Milano - Bicocca offers the Emotional Ergonomics of Immersive Virtual Environment programme.
The new paradigm shift relates to the study of how the human emotional system interacts with virtual spaces, which is known as emotional ergonomics of virtual environments. In other words, ergonomics as a design for the body has given way to cognitive ergonomics, a design for thinking, and then to emotional ergonomics, a design for people's inner states. The Summer School on Emotional Ergonomic of Immersive Virtual Environment (EEIVE) aims at deepening theoretical and methodological domains linked to human-computer interaction with a specific focus on how emotions shape and are shaped by architectural features and constituent elements of virtual experiences. It will include lectures and group-work sessions led by scholars of national and international standing.
