@adwait_sharma Looking forward to more of our chi selfies in the future!

[Adwait Sharma @adwait_sharma]

Absolutely overjoyed to meet with my research hero @hrvojebenko at #CHI2023!
Took a fanboy selfie with him in 2018, and I've always been amazed by his kindness & appreciation for my work 😊 It's moments like these that remind me of how fortunate I'm to be part of this community.

[Hrvoje Benko @hrvojebenko]

@adwait_sharma You are amazing! Hope we keep taking these selfies for years to come!

Flying to Hamburg for #CHI2023. @Meta researchers are presenting papers in Explainable AI for AR, haptics assisted typing, and wrist assisted scrolling! Come check them out! Looking forward to connecting with colleagues old and new!

[Hrvoje Benko @hrvojebenko]

Great work by our team on gaze assisted gesture typing. Check it out at #IUI2023.

[Aakar Gupta @aakarg]

Can gaze be used implicitly to enhance XR typing? We answer this in our #IUI2023 paper "Gaze Speedup: Eye Gaze Assisted Gesture Typing in Virtual Reality" being presented tomorrow by @MaozhengZhao! Work in collab w/ A. Pierce, R. Tan, T. Zhang, T. Wang, @trjonker, @hrvojebenko
