The HUMANS MOVE project at the University of Wyoming is a 10-week interdisciplinary summer Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site program to design, create, and innovate 3-Dimensional User Interfaces (3D UIs) to improve human sensory and motor performances in Virtual Environments. Students will be recruited from diverse backgrounds, disciplines, and underrepresented populations, especially in rural areas or where opportunities in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) are limited. The HUMANS MOVE REU Site will host ten students and provide positive research experiences, training, mentorship, state-of-the-art facilities and equipment, experiential learning activities, tailored resources, and networking connections that will continue to foster students' growth and success in research, graduate studies, and career development. The broader impact of this REU Site is to broaden the participation of underrepresented populations in computing, increase enrollment and retention of those students in graduate studies, and further enhance innovation through increased diverse thinking and creativity.The selected projects for the HUMANS MOVE REU Site focus on conducting state-of-the-art computing research in 3-Dimensional User Interfaces for Immersive Environments, such as Virtual/Augmented/Mixed Reality or Immersive Visualizations. The application areas focus on improving human sensory and motor performance in spatial environments, motor rehabilitation, collaboration and cooperation, and other 3D spatial tasks. The REU site students will collaborate with talented multidisciplinary teams of faculty, students, and staff in areas of computer science, electrical and computer engineering, kinesiology, visualization, art, and design to foster creativity and innovation. Student researchers will evaluate human physical, cognitive, or sensory challenges to inform the design and development of new interaction techniques, input devices, or methods of training, rehabilitation, or augmentation. In addition to collaborating with the research team, students will work together with users or patients to evaluate their proposed solutions. The HUMANS MOVE REU Site will engage students in impactful research projects that will advance technical achievements in 3D User Interfaces, Virtual/Augmented/Mixed Reality applications, training, or rehabilitation as well as broader outcomes to improve 3D tasks, scientific workflow, human health, or the community.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

怀俄明大学的HUMANS MOVE项目是一个为期10周的本科生跨学科夏季研究体验（REU）站点项目，旨在设计、创建和创新三维用户界面（3D ui），以改善人类在虚拟环境中的感觉和运动表现。学生将从不同背景、学科和代表性不足的人口中招收，特别是在农村地区或科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）机会有限的地区。human MOVE REU网站将接待10名学生，并提供积极的研究经验、培训、指导、最先进的设施和设备、体验式学习活动、量身定制的资源和网络连接，这些将继续促进学生在研究、研究生学习和职业发展方面的成长和成功。这个REU网站的更广泛的影响是扩大弱势群体对计算机的参与，增加这些学生在研究生学习中的入学率和保留率，并通过增加多样化的思维和创造力进一步加强创新。human MOVE REU网站的选定项目侧重于在沉浸式环境（如虚拟/增强/混合现实或沉浸式可视化）的三维用户界面中进行最先进的计算研究。应用领域侧重于改善人类在空间环境中的感觉和运动表现，运动康复，协作和合作，以及其他3D空间任务。REU现场的学生将与计算机科学、电气和计算机工程、运动学、可视化、艺术和设计领域的教师、学生和工作人员组成的多学科团队合作，以促进创造力和创新。学生研究人员将评估人类的身体、认知或感官挑战，为新的交互技术、输入设备或训练、康复或增强方法的设计和开发提供信息。除了与研究团队合作外，学生还将与用户或患者一起评估他们提出的解决方案。human MOVE REU网站将吸引学生参与有影响力的研究项目，这些项目将推动3D用户界面、虚拟/增强/混合现实应用、培训或康复方面的技术成就，以及改善3D任务、科学工作流程、人类健康或社区的更广泛成果。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
