I am a researcher, designer, and engineer.
My research focuses on wearable haptic gloves, soft actuators, and HRI.
I aim to enhance the use of human hands by designing the auxiliary hardware and its control system, while also creating natural interaction scenarios for the device.
I graduated from Seoul National University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Industrial Design, and currently am a Ph.D candidate at HCI Tech Lab, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST).
My works have been published in IEEE WHC, IMWUT, IEEE ISMAR, demo at CHI, and exhibited at DDP Seoul.
