The even growing market</div><div>demand, on the one hand, has pushed the diffusion of such technologies; on</div><div>the other hand, it has hampered a detailed analysis of their effects on the</div><div>users. In particular, perceptual evidence from cognitive sciences and</div><div>neurosciences has to be considered during the design of HCI systems in</div><div>order to decrease visual fatigue and cybersickness and to lead to natural</div><div>HCI in virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) environments. Moreover,</div><div>computer science and artificial intelligence can provide techniques to</div><div>design systems that adapt themselves to the specific characteristics of</div><div>each user by producing personalized interfaces that allow a natural HCI, by</div><div>taking into account the sensorimotor control aspects that arise by using such systems.</div><div><br></div><div>The aim of this special issue is to call for high-quality research articles</div><div>as well as review articles with a focus on perceptual aspects and</div><div>computational intelligence techniques to improve the HCI systems in order</div><div>to obtain natural and ecological ways to interact with digital contents in</div><div>VR and AR environments, but not only.</div><div><br></div><div>Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:</div><div>- Natural and ecological HCI in virtual/augmented/mixed reality environments</div><div>- Computational intelligence approach to improve users’ experience</div><div>- Sensorimotor control in virtual/augmented/mixed reality environments and in HCI systems</div><div>- Cognitive science and psychological research on human perception and effects of HCI interfaces</div><div>- Hand/face/body tracking and activity recognition</div><div>- Vision neuroscience and computational vision models for HCI</div><div>- Haptic-based and human-robot interfaces in virtual/augmented/mixed reality environments</div><div>- Misperception issues and undesired effects in visualization devices (e.g., S3D displays and head-mounted displays)</div><div>- Passive BCI-based HCI and eye-tracking for HCI</div><div>- Applications based on S3D displays, smartphones, tablets, and head-mounted displays</div><div><br></div><div>-----------------------------------------------------------------------</div><div><br></div><div>IMPORTANT DATES</div><div><br></div><div>Submission Deadline:<span style="white-space:pre"> </span>Friday, 15 September 2017 (deadline extended)</div><div>Publication Date:<span style="white-space:pre"> </span>February 2018</div><div><br></div><div>Authors can submit their manuscripts through the Manuscript Tracking System</div><div>at <a href="https://mts.hindawi.com/submit/journals/cin/ahcim/">https://mts.hindawi.com/submit/journals/cin/ahcim/</a>.</div><div><br></div><div>-----------------------------------------------------------------------</div><div><br></div><div>GUEST EDITORS</div><div><br></div><div>Fabio Solari (fabio.solari at <a href="http://unige.it">unige.it</a>), University of Genoa, Genoa, Italy</div><div>Manuela Chessa (manuela.chessa at <a href="http://unige.it">unige.it</a>), University of Genoa, Genoa, Italy</div><div>Eris Chinellato (e.chinellato at <a href="http://mdx.ac.uk">mdx.ac.uk</a>), Middlesex University, London, UK</div><div>Jean-Pierre Bresciani (jean-pierre.bresciani at <a href="http://unifr.ch">unifr.ch</a>), University of Fribourg, Fribourg, Switzerland</div><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><font face="courier new, monospace">-----------------------------------------------------------------------</font><br><font face="courier new, monospace"> Fabio Solari, PhD</font><br><font face="courier new, monospace"> Assistant Professor of Computer Science</font><br><font face="courier new, monospace"> Dept. of Informatics, Bioengineering, Robotics and System Engineering</font><br><font face="courier new, monospace"> Via Dodecaneso 35, 16146 Genova (Italy)</font><br><font face="courier new, monospace"> University of Genoa</font><br><font face="courier new, monospace"> </font><br><font face="courier new, monospace"> Phone: +39 010 3536756/6626</font><br><font face="courier new, monospace"> Fax: +39 010 3536533</font><br><font face="courier new, monospace"> Email: </font><a href="mailto:fabio.solari@unige.it" style="font-family:"courier new",monospace" target="_blank">fabio.solari@unige.it</a><br><font face="courier new, monospace"> Web: </font><font color="#0000ee" face="courier new, monospace"><u><a href="https://sites.google.com/site/fabiosolarifs/" target="_blank">https://sites.google.com/site/fabiosolarifs/</a></u></font><font face="courier new, monospace"> </font><br><font face="courier new, monospace">-----------------------------------------------------------------------</font><br></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
