Inside Immersion

How can technology actually help people? Inside Immersion is the podcast of the Immersive Reality Lab at Hamm-Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences (HSHL), hosted by Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jan-Niklas Voigt-Antons.

Each episode explores one research project and the people who work on it. The conversations cover extended reality (XR), augmented reality (AR), digital twins, sensors and artificial intelligence (AI), with a focus on what each project does, how it works and who it is for. Alongside the technology, the episodes look at user research, accessibility, privacy and the ethical questions that come with building systems for real people.

Season one moves through city streets, digital twins, regional railways, home care and rehab clinics, with conversations on ARiadne, DIDYMOS-XR, DigiOnTrack, SilentBedMonitor and MIA-PROM.

A new episode is released on the first day of every month. Follow Inside Immersion wherever you get your podcasts.
