ABSTRACT
In this paper we describe the User Centered Technologies Research Institute at University of Applied Sciences Vorarlberg. We illustrate the perspectives on HCI efforts concerning analogous communication in multi-modal HCI as well as our research and development services for enterprises in order to support user centered design. We also describe current research and development activities of User Centered Technologies Research Institute, the policies, and organizational background. The mission of this research institute aims to advance the level of usability of human computer interfaces within EC FP6 idea of European Research Area.
