Lodz University of Technology is on the way to develop a research and study program in the field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI).

Therefore, we are proud to announce the HCI related contest for the best student research project. Selected projects will be conducted with mentors in spring semester 2019. Authors of the best projects will get opportunity for a research visit to Harvard University.

We will accept one page proposals unitl the end of January, 2019. Details will be given in January.

The contest is organized by the Ubicomp research initiative of the Institute of Applied Computer Science together with International Faculty of Engineering.

The international summer school on Internet of Things: "Connect’em All'2018” were conducted by the Institute of Applied Computer Science in Lodz University of Technology, Lodz, Poland, within 7-13 July 2018. We had 20+ students from all over the Europe (Czech Republik, Denmark, Greece, Germany, Macedonia, Portugal, Spain, Slovenia, Turkey and Ukraine). The summer school was organized thanks to cooperation with BEST association and Ubicom Student Engineering Club. Classes were held in Centre for Information Technology and the Institute of Applied Computer Science.

Our students won 3 best student scholarships!  Jakub Forysiak, Krzysztof Fudała i Piotr Krawiranda received awards and cash prizes from the Deputy Prime Minister J. Gowin. Now they are working on augmented and mixed reality applications under the supervision of Andrzej Romanowski. Congratulations!

Today we have kicked-off the project looking at how can we advance computationally research on microRNA normalization towards defining proper biomarkers in cancer radiotherapy. The data science team is growing. Welcome to the new research students onboard!

UX design workshops for begginers by Ubicomp Engineering Club.

Data analysis group research seminar was held on 19 December of 2017. Two presentations were given by Przemysław Kucharski and Szymon Grabia. Our group collaborates actively with the Department of Biostatistics and Translational Medicine Medical University of Lodz. We invite all the interested students to contact either group leader Dr. Andrzej Romanowski or PhD student, Przemysław Kucharski, MSc who is a direct contact person between our teams.

Hour of Code 2017 conducted by Ubicomp Student Engineering Club.

Ubicomp Students' Engineering Club officially started its activity! The club is associated with the Institute of Applied Computer Science, Lodz University of Technology. There were ca. 25 students (different age, various background & fields of study) at the first grand meeting on November 2,  2017. We discussed how we understand HCI and ideas for possible projects development and research. Natalia Paluch is the President of the board, with Bartosz Ammer, Klaudia Greif, Patryk Pomykalski and Mikołaj Woźniak as the Deputies. The main advisors of the club are Dr. Krzysztof Grudzien and Przemyslaw Kucharski, MSc. Congratulations to all the members and good luck with your projects in HCI!

Team our students (Computer Science and IT from the EEIA Faculty)  won the Cisco Swith Up Challenge 2016 in Krakow! Team members are participants of an Erasmus Mundus LAMENITEC programme - Federico Navarrete, Alfredo Celso, Enrique Hernández from Central America.

Students were inspired by the Pervasive Computing course conducted by Dr Andrzej Romanowski from the Institute of Applied Computer Science and they submitted the "FireFly T-shirt" project. They developed "a smart cloth which allows people to wear it during day and night and feel comfortable on the bike" that actually improves visibility of a rider, visualize the manouvers and hence improves overall riding safety. You can watch a movie of a prototype tests conducted in Lodz in YouTube service.

This project and others including wearable computing, natural interfaces, ubicomp, mobile-mixed reality etc.m that are developed during the course of Pervasive Computing classes can be seen each year during the international iNOTICE conference in June. This year conference is held in Słok near Bełchatów on 22 June 2016. You are invited!

Seminar on measurement techniques and computing methods for process tomography is held in Lodz University of Technology in Poland on December 10-11  2015.
