This is @kaimingcheng.bsky.social at his great talk on "User Comprehension and Comfort with Eye-Tracking and Hand-Tracking Permissions in Augmented Reality" at USEC earlier this week. Nice work!! 🎉 Check out the paper at www.ndss-symposium.org/wp-content/u....

Rachel presenting a slide titled "High-level Architecture" in which a ground operator communicates with a ground station, which then communicates with a comms component on a satellite; the comms component is connected to a flight computer, as is the ADCS, power, and payload.

Congrats to soon-to-be-Dr Rachel McAmis on passing the UW @uwcse.bsky.social General Exam and advancing to candidacy. Her research, with the UW Security & Privacy Research Lab and the @techpolicylab.bsky.social, is focused on satellites and computer security

UW’s @techpolicylab.bsky.social and I invite applications for a 2-year Postdoctoral Researcher position in "AI Alignment with Ethical Principles" focusing on language technologies, societal impact, and tech policy.

Kindly share!
