Week 18: Thesis Submitted! πŸš€

After nearly disappearing for two months, I have finally finished my master’s thesis! πŸŽ‰

Before & After

I never expected the writing process to take this long. Huge thanks to my supervisor, Martin Sillaots, for guiding the transformation of my working notes into a formal design-based research paper. ✍️

I am also grateful to everyone who supported me and tolerated my temper during this intense period. πŸ™βœ¨

The Project: Developing an XR Drone Training Simulator

My research included:

  • Simulating quadcopter physics. βš™οΈ
  • Building and evaluating human-AI collaboration agents. πŸ€–
  • Prototyping in XR environments. πŸ₯½

I will soon update this site with additional content from the thesis. πŸ“

The Magic of Design-Based Research

Data collection sparked many new ideas. This is the magical part of DBR, using different complexity to exchange the complexity in the iterations.

The journey isn’t over yet, as the defense is still ahead. Wish me luck! πŸ€
