This research will be tested and deployed on the Montclair extended reality-based driving simulator (XR-Drive), sponsored by the NSF, over the three-year project.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The success of this NSF project is a very important step for me and my team\u2019s research at Montclair. It enables us to explore the interactions among humans, machines, and environments collaboratively. Most importantly, the interdisciplinary nature of this project will allow innovative collaborative studies that integrate expertise across multiple disciplines centering on intelligent machines, human factors, and environmental factors. It will serve as a new platform for STEM training. For example, students can develop and deploy software content on this new hardware.<\/p>\n<footer><cite>Dr. Rui Li<\/cite><\/footer>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span class=\"prpl-button\"><a href=\"\/newscenter\/2025\/02\/12\/montclair-researchers-receive-nsf-grant-to-advance-interdisciplinary-research-on-human-machine-interaction\/\">Read the Full Article<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Team will utilize 3D driving simulator to create new STEM research opportunities for students<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":34,"featured_media":212461,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-212460","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-research","category-school-of-computing"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/csam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/212460","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/csam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/csam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/csam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/34"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/csam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=212460"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/csam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/212460\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":212462,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/csam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/212460\/revisions\/212462"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/csam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/212461"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/csam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=212460"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/csam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=212460"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/csam\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=212460"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
