Research interests
I am interested in CAED supported engineering design, specifically CAD systems encompassing different design stages, from conceptual design to manufacturing, their integration in the lifecycle of a product and the effect they have on the final design. Particular interest is in how new technologies can support this e.g. gesture-based systems, VR/AR etc.
I am also interested in different aspects of systems engineering in the context of complex systems engineering design.

- Route to Impact - Natural gestures VR/AR CAD interaction system
- Vuletic, Tijana (Principal Investigator) Grant, David (Co-investigator) Welsh, Ryan (Researcher)
- Development of a proof of concept of VR/AR CAD interaction system using natural and intuitive gestures, detected by infrared sensors. When using current mainstream Computer Aided Design (CAD) systems designers are required to accommodate an understanding of the capabilities of the CAD system rather than focusing their effort on the design concept. At DMEM we have developed a language of free form gestures creating the most natural and intuitive gestures for design, allowing designers to focus on the design idea, rather than the CAD interface commands. The gesture design language aims to enable intuitive and natural interaction with VR/AR system, using visual recognition rather than wearables or mouse and keyboard.
