Abstract
The 2020 CHCCS/SCDHM Achievement Award from the Canadian Human-Computer Communications Society is presented to Dr. Ravin Balakrishnan. This award recognizes his significant and varied contributions in the areas of Human Computer Interaction (HCI), Information and Communications Technology for Development, and Interactive Computer Graphics. Ravin's work has had a tremendous impact on real-world applications. His research includes early innovations in areas such as 3D user interfaces, large display input, multitouch gestures, freehand input, and pen-based computing, which has informed and inspired techniques and technologies that are now commonplace in commercial products. a conversation between Ravin Balakrishnan and Prof. Tovi Grossman (University of Toronto) that took place in April, 2020.
