Mizzou Engineering team using explainable machine learning to combat cybersickness

Nausea, headaches, dizziness. Just as motion sickness can ruin an otherwise pleasant road trip, cybersickness can make virtual reality unbearable for some users. That’s a problem as even the federal government has prioritized spending to incorporate immersive technology in educational, medical and commercial settings. In hopes of mitigating the effects of cybersickness, a Mizzou Engineering team has come up with TruVR, a framework for developing a cybersickness detection method based on explainable machine learning. Khaza Anuarul Hoque In other words, they’re developing a system that could predict and explain cybersickness which can ultimately aid in preventing cybersickness in…

Cracking the code: Engineering team devises improved way to predict cracks

Rogelio Muñeton-Lopez, left, receives congratulations during the Engineering Mechanics Institute conference earlier this month where he was a finalist in the student paper competition for his work on predicting cracks. Cracks can cause serious problems on roads and bridges, as they compromise the strength and soundness of a structure. A Mizzou Engineering team has devised a way to better predict not only where a crack will occur but also the path it could take as it progresses. The work earned Rogelio Muñeton-Lopez, a master’s student in civil engineering, runner-up status at the Engineering Mechanics Institute conference earlier this…
