Ali Askari, M.Sc.

Ali Askari joined the HCI Group in March 2017 as a research assistant. He supported the group at various research activities in the field of Driver-Vehicle Interaction and worked among other things on the KoFFI-Project. In 2019, he finished his Bachelor Degree in Media Informatics, the title of his thesis was "Enabling 6-DoF interactions in Virtual Reality on 3-DoF limited HMD systems". 

During his Master studies at the University of Ulm, Ali supported the Insitute as a research assistant with research projects such as the "SituWare Project", and as lecturer for additive manufactoring methods the "Sketching with Hardware I & II" course. With his master thesis with the topic "Evaluating the validity of Presence questionnaires", he finished his Master Degree in Media Informatics on June 2022. 

Until September 2023, Ali was attempting a PhD thesis at the BMW AG in Munich, which is supervised by the Institute of Media Informatics, on the topic of depth perception in Augmented Reality. In addition, he supported the Institute for Media Research and Media Development (IMM) as a Research Associate in leading the "Sketching with Hardware I & II" course.
