The distance between the real and the virtual is clearest at the interface layer. The ways that our bodies interact with the physical world are rich and elaborate while digital interactions are far more limited. I present my concept of perceptual engineering, which aims to increase the level of direct and intuitive interaction with the virtual world. My goal is to raise computing devices from external systems that require deliberate usage to those that are truly an extension of us, advancing both the state of research and human ability.
