Evgeny Stemasov, M.Sc.

Evgeny Stemasov joined the research group Human Computer Interaction in 2016 as a teaching and research assistant. Prior to that, he studied Media Informatics at the University of Ulm, beginning in late 2012, receiving his bachelor’s degree in 2015 and his master's degree in 2018. The title of his master's thesis was "Beyond Noise-Cancellation: Interacting with Auditory Mediated and Augmented Reality".
