We now live in a world where people can communicate, in real-time, both directly and remotely (e.g., Skype); and where new technologies (e.g., virtual reality, robots, driverless cars; smart phones) are blurring the traditional lines of human-human and human-computer interactions. In short, the digital world of industry is experiencing a revolution. TELUS Corporation competes in this international telecommunications market. This project aims to reduce the time it takes TELUS to develop and introduce its products to market by eliminating the need to outsource its user-experience (UX) research. UBC's Brain, Attention, and Reality Lab, will provide UX research and training to TELUS during product development. The objective of the present project is to establish UX research at TELUS, and plan a long-term collaborative partnership with TELUS whereby UBC talent works in, and ultimately provides the primary source of UX research talent to, TELUS throughout Canada.**

我们现在生活在一个人们可以直接或远程实时交流的世界（例如 Skype）；新技术（例如虚拟现实、机器人、无人驾驶汽车、智能手机）正在模糊人与人以及人与计算机交互的传统界限。简而言之，工业数字世界正在经历一场革命。 TELUS Corporation 在这个国际电信市场上展开竞争。该项目旨在通过消除外包用户体验 (UX) 研究的需要，缩短 TELUS 开发产品并将其产品推向市场所需的时间。 UBC 的大脑、注意力和现实实验室将在产品开发期间为 TELUS 提供用户体验研究和培训。本项目的目标是在 TELUS 建立用户体验研究，并计划与 TELUS 建立长期合作伙伴关系，让 UBC 人才在加拿大各地的 TELUS 工作，并最终为 TELUS 提供用户体验研究人才的主要来源。**
