Lehrplan
In this practical. we will explore the role of physiological sensing in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), where biometric data is used to create more adaptive, responsive, and user-centered technologies. Students will learn how to measure and interpret key physiological signals, gaining practical experience with real-world sensing devices. Traditional HCI relies on explicit user inputs like mouse clicks and keystrokes. However, physiological sensing enables a deeper understanding of user states—such as stress, engagement, and cognitive load—leading to more intuitive and adaptive systems. They are often applied in the context of affective computing, BCIs, stress and well-being, gaming and VR etc. To get a good overview, we will explore most commonly used physiological signals in HCI, such as:
- Heart Rate Monitoring: Basic physiological sensing and its role in user state detection.
- Eye Tracking: Analyzing gaze behavior for interaction design, usability testing, and attention tracking.
- Electrodermal Activity (EDA): Measuring stress and arousal to evaluate user engagement.
- Electroencephalography (EEG): Brain activity measurement for cognitive workload analysis and neuroadaptive interfaces.
