About the Speaker
Dr. Peter Coppin is a designer, visual artist, and cognitive scientist. His work seeks to improve information access by understanding how individuals use their diverse perceptual-motor capabilities to engage with interfaces (such as diagrams, sonic interfaces and financial charts). His articles focus on perceptual-cognitive aspects of information interfaces, with applications in areas like dyslexia, learning technology, human-robot interaction, and more. His work with government agencies and industry includes projects visualizing complex Earth and planetary datasets for NASA. Recent work tackles development of data analytics interfaces allowing low-vision and blind individuals to access visual charts.
