About this Event

Host Organization: Faculty of Engineering and Design

FED Talks is a speaker series from the Faculty of Engineering and Design that engages the community in discussions of timely and innovative ideas in engineering, design and technology.

Audrey Girouard, assistant professor in the School of Information Technology, discusses new ways that people can communicate with their electronic devices. Her work in the field of human computer interaction has her working with thin, flexible displays that can be bent to provide input. Need to flip the page of your e-book? Just bend the corner of the screen. This deformable user interface will shape the next generation of displays.
