Phantasos - Goodbye, CS@KU 🥑

In my senior year of Computer Science bachelors, we undertook a year-long team project, which is called to be our capstone. I worked in a fantastic team with Grant Holmes, Malena Schoeni, Carter Hurrod, and Rodrigo Figueroa! My role in the group was more of a manager, such as keeping up with our deliverables, communication, conflict resolution, and project management. Supa thankful for such a great team and what we were able to do.

Our team/project is called Phantasos, after a Roman God of Sleep. The goal was to develop a system that expands the user’s interactive capability of interfacing with a computer using multiple sensors. Keyboards? Mice? This is old tech from the 60s. There is lots of friction between computers and users; let us explore new ways that we can interact with them. In many ways, this idea has been significantly inspired by Sword Art Online.
