AC 2011-1500: DEVELOPMENT OF HAPTIC VIRTUAL REALITY GAM- ING ENVIRONMENTS FOR TEACHING NANOTECHNOLOGY

Dianne Pawluk (PhD, Harvard) is an Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Virginia Commonwealth University. She teaches courses in the areas of computational methods, haptics and rehabilitation engineering. Her active research areas include haptic perceptual organization, the development of haptic assistive devices and methods for individuals who are blind or visually impaired, and the effective use of haptics in education.(Contact: dtpawluk@vcu.edu)
