 The time is over that technology takes place just in technology firms. The time is now right that technology takes place outside technology firms and this is no different for virtual reality. The alumni master class series presents virtual reality, mixed reality and augmented reality. I'm Max Lauer, professor of cognitive psychology and artificial intelligence at Tilburg University and I have the honor to organize that master class. This is closely related to the Dove Technology Lab, a facility that we have at Tilburg University campus where the best of the virtual world and the real world are combined. We're going to present you virtual reality as you may have experienced on Oculus Rift glasses as well as mixed reality where we can see each other and yet a virtual world is presented on the walls. And not only will you get the theoretical background and a tour through the Dove Technology Lab, in addition to that we let you program, we let you build simulations that you can use in virtual reality settings and if you're scared of programming this class is particularly useful because within an hour or so you're going to feel more accustomed to building those simulations. Now when it comes to research virtual reality is not just presenting information, it's also measuring what it does to humans and this is critical for academic research but also research and development within companies. So in addition to the tour through the Dove Technology Lab, the theoretical implications and you building simulations, we'll also give you a tour through sensing technologies. What equipment can you use to measure human behavior? Human behavior related to brain activity, to gestures, to speech, to facial expressions as well as to heartbeat and blood pressure. So I'm looking forward to seeing you in the master class virtual reality, mixed reality and augmented reality.
