Miniature Haptics

Miniature Haptics, which received CHI 2020 Honorable Mention Award 🏆, fundamentally re-thinks how haptics could be provided in new ways to explore haptic experiences beyond what’s possible today. It provides realistic haptic experiences by applying miniaturized haptic feedback to hand-based, embodied avatars.

ACM CHI 2020 Paper 🏆

WalkingVibe: Reducing Virtual Reality Sickness and Improving Realism while Walking in VR using Unobtrusive Head-mounted Vibrotactile Feedback.jpg

WalkingVibe

WalkingVibe applies vibrotactile cues behind the ears, synchronized to footsteps, to reduce VR sickness and to increase the realism of walking experiences in VR.

ACM CHI 2020 Paper

  • [2020/10] We presented StrengthGaming, a new approach to turn repetitive and monotonic strength training motions to control popular games at MobileHCI 2020.

Overview

My research focuses on future user interfaces, at the intersection of human-computer interaction (HCI), artificial intelligence (AI), design, psychology, and mobile/wearable/VR/AR systems. Our work has been featured by Discovery Channel, Engadget, TechCrunch, EE Times, New Scientist, Fast Company, and more.

Recent highlights include CHI Best Paper Awards 🏆and Honorable Mention Awards 🏆, UIST Best Talk Award 🏆, and 科技部吳大猷研究獎 Outstanding Young Researcher Award 🏆. My full publications at CHI, UIST, MobileHCI, and SIGGRAPH are on ACM Digital Library and Google Scholar (citations: 13000, h-index: 45).

I’m sub-committee co-chair (SC) for ACM CHI 2020 in Hawaii and ACM CHI 2021 in Japan. I also organized ACM MobileHCI 2019 conference as program co-chair, (Taipei, Oct 1-4, 2019), in addition to serving as Awards Committee members and Associate Chairs for CHI, UIST, Ubicomp, WWW, SIGGRAPH Asia, USENIX ATC, etc.
