Oliver Korn is a full professor for human–computer interaction (HCI) and director of the Affective & Cognitive Institute (ACI) at Offenburg University in Germany. He also is a certified project manager (German Chamber of Commerce), Senior Member of ACM, and Professional Member of the IEEE. His main areas of research are: - Context-aware smart systems - Assistive technologies and robotics - Affective computing - Augmented, virtual, and mixed reality - Gaming and gamification At the ACI, he undertakes study in these fields together with an interdisciplinary research team. Their overall vision is to enrich environments with intuitive interfaces, which are “intelligent” systems that can recognize and adapt to context and ideally also a user’s mental and emotional state. He has overseen several research projects for the German ministries of Research (BMBF) and Economy (BMWi). His research reflects in numerous national and international publications (e.g., ACM CHI, ASSETS, EICS, PETRA, AHFE, CIE). He edited the Springer books Game Dynamics (2017) and Social Robots (2019). From 2018 to 2020 he was program chair of conference ACM PETRA. The communication and dissemination of research results beyond the academic world in the sense of the "Third Mission" is of importance to him. Since 2016, he has produced several science films and, in 2020, a comprehensive science comic on social robots and AI, which is freely available.
