Virtual Reality Project

Joy Li, assistant professor of game design and development in the College of Computing and Software Engineering, has always been interested in using advanced gaming tools in a serious manner.

The project is funded by a four-year National Science Foundation (NSF) grant totaling more than $170,000. Li鈥檚 research aims to improve the learning ability of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and provide novel design guidelines for future virtual reality systems used in ASD therapy.
