A research seminar hosted by the Interdisciplinary Program in Artificial Intelligence (IPAI) at Seoul National University (SNU) was held on February 11, 2025, featuring Professor David Lindlbauer from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU).

During the seminar titled “The Future of Extended Reality is Adaptive,” Professor Lindlbauer introduced novel approaches to enhancing human interaction with digital information through Extended Reality (XR). He emphasized the limitations of current XR systems—often static and prone to information overload—and presented adaptive, context-aware solutions that dynamically adjust virtual elements based on user behavior and environmental context.

Drawing from his work at CMU’s Human-Computer Interaction Institute, Professor Lindlbauer showcased computational and multimodal techniques that enable seamless integration of physical and virtual worlds. The talk underscored how these technologies can expand the usability and effectiveness of XR in everyday digital environments. 

The seminar served as a valuable opportunity for students and researchers at SNU to engage with cutting-edge advancements in XR and explore future research directions in adaptive human-computer interaction.
