Bridging low-level perceptual processing and higher-order cognition, the “Continuum of Cognition and Perception” symposium explores how human perception dynamically interacts with predictive behavior and immersive technologies. Featuring talks on attentional guidance, predictive eye-tracking, and experimental methodologies for extended reality, this session highlights the closed loop between sensing, forecasting, and acting. Tapping into perceptual limits and predictive coding can advance both fundamental cognitive science and the engineering of intuitive, perception-aware systems.
21/22 October 2026, Room Y326 University of Konstanz
Speakers:
Prof. Wolfgang Gaissmaier, Prof. Ernst Kruijff, Dr. Erik Marsja, Dr. Prasetia Putra, Prof. Martin Weier, Dr. Stefan Zellmann
The riskyrApp is an interactive application that complements the R package riskyr. The application is written in R Shiny and allows using riskyr without any need for coding. riskyr originated out of a series of lectures and workshops on risk literacy.
Its primary designers are Hansjörg Neth, Felix Gaisbauer, Nico Gradwohl, and Wolfgang Gaissmaier of the department of Social Psychology and Decision Sciences.
