About the Workshop
The integration of eXtended Reality (XR) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) enables experiences that evolve from specialized applications to everyday wearable platforms. This realization has caused a paradigm shift in how people interact with intelligent systems.
Our workshop focuses on the potential of these interfaces to transform human-AI interaction, from hands-free, spatially contextualized dialogue to embodied, gesture-enhanced communication, enabling seamless integration into daily activities.
We bring together researchers and practitioners to explore how XR, combined with AI-driven adaptation and human-centered evaluation, can create intelligent systems that truly augment human capabilities.
Workshop Topics
AI-Driven Personalization
How AI can drive real-time personalization of immersive interfaces that adapt to user states, contexts, and goals.
Multimodal Interaction
Design principles for XR-based multimodal interaction with AI agents, ensuring efficiency and intuitiveness.
Human Factors
Methods to measure and optimize cognitive load, emotional engagement, and trust in AI-mediated XR interactions.
Inclusive Design
Accessibility by design approaches ensuring inclusivity for users with diverse abilities.
Collaborative Dynamics
Social and collaborative dynamics in multi-user AI-enhanced XR spaces.
Ethical Considerations
Ethical frameworks for responsible development of AI-powered XR experiences.
