 ract\n Designing enhanced predicates
  for geometry-based applications in 
 the human-computer interaction (HCI)
  domain is a complex task. In some c
 ases, it requires tremendous efficie
 ncy, such as in real-time networked 
 mixed reality (XR) applications, whi
 le, in others, it demands versatilit
 y, like handling operations involvin
 g diverse 3D objects, which complica
 tes design and implementation. To th
 is end, our journey delves into the 
 dynamic realm of geometric algebra (
 GA) and its transformative impact on
  computational geometry and XR. Our 
 research spans from foundational geo
 metric predicates to cutting-edge ap
 plications, seamlessly integrating G
 A into the fabric of software develo
 pment. Through a series of innovativ
 e algorithms and frameworks, we tack
 le challenges in real-time character
  animation, networked VR environment
 s, virtual simulations, and generati
 ve AI, pushing the boundaries of wha
 t’s possible in interactive 3D envir
 onments. By harnessing the power of 
 GA, we unlock new avenues for geomet
 ry-driven applications across divers
 e disciplines. Join us as we explore
  the convergence of mathematics, com
 putation, and immersive technologies
 , paving the way for innovation and 
 discovery in a wide array of geometr
 y-driven domains.\n \n About the Spe
 aker\n Manos Kamarianakis is a mathe
 matics researcher that specializes i
 n computational geometry and its app
 lications in computer graphics. He r
 eceived his PhD in applied mathemati
 cs from the University of Crete  (Uo
 C), where he studied the Voronoi Dia
 grams of 3D spheres. He holds a MSc 
 (Honors) in mathematics, as well as 
 2 bachelor degrees, both in pure and
  applied mathematics. Since July 201
 9, he is a member of the Foundation 
 for Research and Technology Hellas -
  Institute of Computer Science (FORT
 H-ICS) spinoff startup ORamaVR. As a
  research director, he oversees the 
 design of innovative geometric-based
  algorithms, suitable for augmented,
  virtual, and mixed reality. He is t
 he deputy PI of several EU Projects 
 regarding advanced medical HCI appli
 cations in 5G edge cloud computing e
 nvironments. His paper Never "Drop t
 he ball" received the Best Paper and
  Presentation Award from the CGI2021
  Conference (ENGAGE Workshop). Manos
  is currently a visiting researcher 
 of FORTH-ICS and specifically the Hu
 man-Computer Interaction Lab. Since 
 September 2022, he has been an adjun
 ct professor with the Computer Scien
 ce Department at UoC. Furthermore, f
 rom July 2019 until July 2022, he wa
 s a post-doctoral researcher in the 
 Department of Mathematics, UoC, work
 ing on logic and diophantine problem
 s. \n
