Two new projects from the Sensing, Interaction & Perception Lab of Professor Christian Holz advance the versatility of today’s Virtual Reality (VR) platforms, taking advantage of common devices such as a fitness watch or a smartphone. By developing novel AI frameworks, they allow VR users to freely interact in 3D space and grab objects that are out of sight, or even play in places as small as a car, a train or an airplane seat.

Every year on the fourth Thursday of April, International Girls in ICT Day is celebrated to raise awareness about the need for greater representation of women in the information and communication technology (ICT) sector.

Nine ETH Zurich students participated in the Global Young Scientists Summit in Singapore to get inspired by the journey of Nobel laureates and discuss the role of science for human society, among them Computer Science Master’s students Raphaël Baur and Jasmin Schult.

Luca Beurer-Kellner, Marc Fischer and Prof. Martin Vechev created a new open-source platform and programming language called LMQL that make it easier, cheaper, and safer to interact with large language models like ChatGPT.

Team nETHics, composed of ETH students and trained by the student organisation ETH Cyber Group, placed second at this year's Geneva Cyber 9/12 Strategy Challenge. Congratulations!
