Eye tracking is advancing quickly and now integrated in all kinds of personal devices. Then how can we leverage such technology and generate tailored augmentations to support people with low vision in visual tasks?

Eye tracking technique has potential but is also very challenging for people with low vision. Tomorrow morning at #CHI2023, my student @ruw001 will talk about how we make eye tracking more accessible to low vision users...

If you're a professor or a student in STEM in a Western country, you probably know someone from the Sharif University of Technology in Iran. They might have be your students, peers, or friends. That university is now under attack by the Islamic Republic. 🧵(1/16) #MahsaAmini

According to census.gov, 77% of the population of Madison is White, while Asians make up about 9%. You need more concrete evidence to convince me the attack was random. #StopAsianHate

Our partners from @madisonpolice have released information about an attack downtown Tuesday night. They believe the incident was random and not racially motivated...and they're looking for your help in identifying the suspects (photos below). More info » cityofmadison.com/police/new…

I’m so shocked and disappointed to hear this. We should feel safe walking on the streets without fear of hate and violence! @UWMadison #StopAsianHate

Can relate so much. I was shouted “take off ur mask, fagots” by a white man driving by as I walked on the streets of downtown LA. Every time I recall this, I can still feel the rage and the fear of not knowing when this kind of random shit will happen to me ever again.
