MSense Lab

Welcome to MSense Lab!

We are an international and interdisciplinary team of young researchers that are curious about multisensory perception. The lab is located in LMU Munich, Munich, Germany, and headed by Dr. Zhuanghua Shi, and Prof. Hermann J. Müller. We focus on multisensory perception and attention, computational modelling, as well as applications to human-machine interface. In particular, we are interested in how multisensory temporal integration, and how contexts impacts our perception and daily performance.
