معرفی
Jason Orlosky is an Associate Professor at Augusta University, with academic appointments in both the College of Allied Health Sciences and the School of Computer and Cyber Sciences. He is affiliated with the Department of Computer & Cyber Sciences and leads the ARVR Lab, a research group focused on augmented and virtual reality, eye tracking, and intelligent interaction systems. His work bridges computer science, health education, and human-computer interaction, with strong international collaboration with Osaka University.
Research Interests: His research spans augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR), gaze-based interaction, intelligent agents, vision augmentation, and educational technology. He explores how biometrics like eye tracking and pupillometry can detect cognitive states and enhance user experience in XR environments. His lab develops novel interfaces for remote collaboration, teleoperation, and immersive learning, particularly in healthcare and training contexts.
His recent publications (2021–2024) reflect a strong focus on practical and theoretical advances in XR, including gaze-driven interaction techniques, VR sickness mitigation, display prototyping, and educational applications. Themes include user comfort, ergonomic design, cognitive load assessment, and safety in mobile AR. His work appears in top venues such as IEEE VR, IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, and ACM conferences.
Scientific Awards:
- Outstanding Faculty Award, Augusta University (2023)
- Best Paper, Augmented Human International Conference (2016)
- Best Paper, International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces (2013)
- Best Presentation Honorable Mention, IEEE VR (2024)
