About
Henning Pohl is a researcher whose work explores the intersection of human-computer interaction, virtual and augmented reality, and game design. His major contributions lie in understanding how immersive technologies shape user experience, particularly in the context of fear and play. Notably, his 2022 study on "Fear Inducing Play in an AR Escape Room with Human and Robotic NPCs" (6 citations) investigates the underexplored potential of AR horror games, demonstrating how physical environments and robotic agents can heighten emotional engagement. This work highlights his broader interest in designing interactive systems that leverage real-world contexts to create compelling, emotionally resonant experiences. While his citation counts are still growing, his research is pioneering in bridging AR, robotics, and psychological responses, offering valuable insights for developers and scholars alike. Pohl’s achievements include advancing the understanding of how non-player characters—both human and robotic—can be integrated into AR narratives to enhance immersion and fear, a novel contribution to the field of mixed reality gaming.
