SUMMARY:Open House - Bionics Lab\, Engineering IV Room 18-111
DESCRIPTION:Visits to this lab will begin at the top of the hour: 12p\, 1p\, 2p\, 3p\, and 4p.\nThe Bionics Lab at UCLA is a research group aiming to develop science\, technology\, and human resources at the interface between robotics\, biological systems\, and medicine. The goal is to produce useful\, innovative research and technology as well as trained researchers fluent in both science\, engineering\, biological systems\, and robotics. The primary research fields of the Bionics Lab are medical robotics and biorobotics including surgical robotics\, and wearable robotics as they apply to the following fields: control\, human motor control\, neural control\, human and brain machine interfaces\, motor control rehabilitation (stroke)\, brain plasticity\, haptics\, virtual reality\, teleoperation\, biomechanics (full body kinematics and dynamics as well as  soft/hard tissues biomechanics). \nResearch in these fields is conducted as part of a collaboration efforts with the UCLA medical school – CASIT (Center for Advanced Surgical and Interventional Technology) as well as other medical schools such as UCSF and University of Washington. \n \nThe lab is at Engineering IV Room 18-111 (ground floor) – The first room on the right as you enter the building from the front.

SUMMARY:Erin Cooney Performance with Immersive Technology - Broad Art Center\, EDA Space
DESCRIPTION:Erin Cooney\, DMA Graduate Student\, will be showing a live dance performance that is choreographed to use live body cams connected directly to the Immersive environment. This is showing on May 20th. \nBODY/SITE/SEEN is a multimedia dance workshop-performance made in collaboration by UCLA graduate students from Design|Media Arts\, World Arts & Cultures/Dance\, and the School of Music \nBODY/SITE/SEEN is a collaborative performance that uses dance\, music\, and multimedia to explore ideas related to embodiment and point of view. In BODY/SITE/SEEN\, the live-streams of cameras attached to dancers’ bodies are projected onto the walls of the performance space\, instigating a meditation on the bounded nature of embodiment and the fractional incompleteness of point of view. \nProject Lead: Erin Cooney (Design|Media Arts)\nDancers & Choreography: Joey Navarrete-Medina\, Sanchita Sharma\, Marianna Varviani (World Arts & Cultures/Dance)\nMusic Composition: Anthony Constantino (School of Music)\nMultimedia: Erin Cooney\, Zeynep Abes\, Nate Mohler (Design|Media Arts)\nCostuming: Berfin Ataman (Design|Media Arts) \nFor more information on her showcase BODY/SITE/SEEN\, see the event’s Facebook Page.

SUMMARY:Open House: Suthana Laboratory\, Semel Building room 48-136
DESCRIPTION:The Suthana laboratory provides a novel platform that allows for wireless and programmable recording and stimulation of deep brain activity in freely moving human participants. The lab has integrated the platform with external biometrics (e.g.\, heart rate\, skin conductance\, respiration\, eye tracking\, and scalp EEG) and state of the art virtual (and augmented) reality (VR/AR) technology. This first-of-its kind research platform for programmable deep brain recording and stimulation\, external biometrics and VR/AR allows for a naturalistic and ecologically valid environment for elucidating the neural mechanisms underlying freely moving human behaviors and developing and testing viable therapies for patients with neurologic and psychiatric disorders. \n \nTake H-elevators to 4th floor. Turn right and take the first hallway to the right. The lab is on the right side\, room # 48-136. Please call (310) 343-9628 if you need more directions.\nFurther details \nThe Suthana laboratory has a state-of-the-art motion capture space for mobile brain imaging housed in a 400 square foot room in suite 48-136 of the Jane and Terry Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior. This space is equipped with 24 wall mounted high-resolution cameras (Optitrack\, Natural Point\, Inc.) for sub-millimieter motion capture and body positioning. This includes 18 Prime 13W cameras each with a 3.5 mm stock lens (82° horizontal FOV and 70° vertical FOV\, 850nm band-pass filter\, 800 nM (infrared) or 700 nm (Visible) filter switcher)\, 1280 x 1024 resolution with a frame rate of 30-240 FPS\, 4.2 ms latency\, and shutter speed of up to 3.9 msec. For facial emotion capture there are an additional 6 Prime 13 cameras each with a 5.5 mm stock lens (56° horizontal FOV and 46° vertical FOV\, 850nm band-pass filter\, 800 nM (infrared) or 700 nm (Visible) filter switcher)\, 1280 x 1024 resolution with a frame rate of 30-240 FPS\, 4.2 ms latency\, and shutter speed of up to 3.9 msec. Motion capture suits\, reflective markers are used in conjunction with specialized software\, Motive and Camera SDK (Natural Point\, Inc.)\, that allows for kinematic labeling through development of subjects’ skeletal structure using sub-millimiter marker labels\, real time output\, full real-time control of cameras\, and syncing capability with behavioral paradigm and neural data. \nThe VR/AR environments are programmed using the Unity game engine and the C# language to implement customized immersive environments with controlled stimuli and functionalities. Using motion capture cameras\, the participants’ locations are mirrored real-time in the VR/AR application. VR/AR headsets are all equipped with eye tracking and include the SMI Samsung gear\, HTC Vive\, HoloLens and Magic Leap. \nHeart rate\, skin conductance\, and respiration are recorded using the wireless BioNomadix Smart Center (Biopac). Data is streamed in real-time to the computer that is running the MoCap system for synchronization of multiple data streams. \nMobile Scalp EEG is recorded with the EEGOSPORTS WaveGuard 64-channel EEG and eego mylab system (ANT Neuro) for real-time recording and compatibility with DBS. The amplifier (weight =~500 g) and data acquisition tablet (VAIO™ Ultrabook®\, Sony) are battery powered and are carried by the participant in a small backpack allowing for scalp EEG in real-time through access via WIFI. The eego mylab system has a sampling rate of up to 16 KHz capable of handling large DBS artifacts with a less than 10 msec recovery rate. Electrode positions can be digitized and registered to individual participant MRIs using Xensor software (ANT Neuro).

SUMMARY:VR Showcase: UCLA Game Lab\, Broad Art Center Room 3252
DESCRIPTION:Is VR revolutionary or is it hype? As with any form of emerging technology\, high expectations tend to detract from the experience itself; and VR experiences that ARE mainstream enough\, often disappoint users. Let’s put aside “the future is now” argument and focus on the content that actually shows the bold spirit of innovation among independent artists that haven’t had a chance to share their work. This mini showcase is an exclusive selection of unique under the radar VR experiences. Dive into a day of narrative worlds\, social media cultures\, immersive designs\, game theory\, and transmedia activism!
