Hi! I'm Roshan!

XR Researcher and Designer
I am an Assistant Professor in Computer Science at the
University of Central Florida.

Prior to this, I was a Research Associate at the University of Florida.

My research interests broadly focuses on the use of Virtual, Augmented, and Mixed Reality using the lens of perception to understand human behavior. The end goal of my research is to improve the overall XR user experience.

Over the last few years, I have had the chance to investigate different perceptual phenomena in these mediums associated with but not limited to:

- virtual humans and user-attention

- inputs and interactions with avatars

- cybersickness and spatial awareness


- depth, size, sound, and affordance perception


- presence, workload, and usability


- writing and artwork


 
My specialization deals with inputs, 3D interaction metaphors, and avatars in immersive mediums. 

I've been fortunate enough to establish an eclectic mixture of highly successful interdisciplinary collaborations with experts from psychology, neuroscience, computer vision and graphics, digital production, and cyber innovators at an international and multi-institutional level.
