Professor Mark Perry receives a grant for a Knowledge Transfer Partnership between Brunel University and Ultraleap Ltd

Professor Mark Perry from the department of Computer Science has received a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) grant totalling £150,257. Dr Theodora Koulori will also be acting as co-investigator for this project. The KTP programme allows UK businesses to improve their competitiveness and productivity through the use of the knowledge, technology and skills of researchers within higher or further education institutions.

The project, titled 'Hygienic, usable, engaging public mid-air interactions' will run from 2020-2022 and will be in partnership with Ultraleap Ltd. The main aim of this project is to deploy insights and data from pioneering behavioural research to drive design innovation and build hygienic, user-friendly and engaging 'mid-air' touchless interactions with multisensory haptic feedback on public signage and kiosks.
