Our team participated in the Korea Haptics Conference 2024 in Gyeongju!
Dajin Lee was awarded the Best Paper Award for her work titled “Differential Thresholds of Azimuth between Auditory and Tactile Stimuli.”
Jiwan Lee, Jaejun Park, Jaehyeok Ahn, and Heeji Sohn were awarded the Best Demonstration Award for their project, “Automatic Authoring of Physical and Perceptual/Affective Motion Effects for Virtual Reality.” Please give a big hand to the authors!
We have won a new research grant from the University ICT Research Center funded by Institute for Information and Communication Technology Promotion (IITP). In this project, we will study technologies for augmenting human cognition and intelligence to overcome human limitations and disabilities. Through this process, we will train 200 international researchers with master’s and doctoral degrees who will drive national innovation growth. We will be supported 9,138 million won (9,138K dollors) for 6.5 years.
Jungeun Lee also won Research Subsidies for Ph.D. Candidates from National Research Foundation of Korea in 2024. In this project, Jungeun will study the haptic resistance using electrical muscle stimulation for shared autonomy-based remote control. Jungeun will be supported 50 million won (50K dollors) for 2 years.
Gyeore Yun and Chaeyong Park were awarded their Ph.D., and Jaehyeok Ahn and Heeyeon Kim were awarded their master’s degrees.
Chaeyong Park continues his career as a post-doctoral researcher at our laboratory.
Praise for the bright future of our graduates!
We participated in 2024 Eurohaptics in Lille, France. Our team members, Dongguen Kim, Junwoo Kim, Jiwan Lee, and Dajin Lee presented their research, which had been published in Eurohaptics 2024.
Dajin Lee also demonstrated her project, “Participatory Design for In-Vehicle Vibrotactile Warnings on Driver’s Seat.”
Our paper “Augmenting Perceived Length of Handheld Controllers: Effects of Object Handle Properties” won an honorable mention in the CHI 2024. Please give a big hand to the authors, Chaeyong Park and Seungmoon Choi!
We participated in 2024 IEEE Haptics Symposium in Long Beach, California, USA.
Our team members, Dajin Lee, Jiwan Lee, Jungeun Lee, and Dongguen Kim presented their research, which had been published in IEEE Transactions on Haptics Short papers.
Dajin Lee and Dongguen Kim were nominated for the Best ToH Short Paper award for their papers titled “Effects of Contact Force on Vibrotactile Perceived Intensity Across the Upper Body” and “Sound-to-Touch Crossmodal Pitch Matching for Short Sounds,” respectively.
Additionally, Jiwan Lee demonstrated her project, “Telemetry-based Haptic Rendering for Racing Game Experience Improvement.”
Sangyoon Han was awarded his Ph.D., and Hoseok Jung was awarded his master’s degree. Sangyoon Han presented a Ph.D. thesis about generating motion effects for moving objects in 4D content. He is going to continue his career as a researcher at Samsung Electronics. Hoseok Jung presented a master’s thesis about encounter-type thermal haptic device using multiple rotating pre-heated peltier actuators and continue his career as a researcher at Stanford Center Korea. Praise for the bright future of our graduates!
We participated in Korea HCI 2024 in Hongcheon.
Jaehyuk Ahn presented his first research paper titled “Event-Independent Haptic Feedback in a VR Rhythm Game Using a Haptic Garment.” Heeyeon Kim demonstrated her project named “Comfort-Inducing Haptic Rendering for Relaxation in Virtual Reality.” Seungmoon, Dajin, Junwoo, Hyunuk, Siheon, Dongguen, and Suheon enjoyed skiing and snowboarding.
Our paper “Merging Camera and Object Haptic Motion Effects for Improved 4D Experiences” won the best paper award (2nd place) in the Korea Haptics Conference 2023. Please give a big hand to the authors, Jaejun Park, Sangyoon Han, and Seungmoon Choi!
Our paper “Perceived Intensity Model of Dual-Frequency Superimposed Vibration: Pythagorean Sum” won the best paper award in the World Haptics Conference 2023 (as published in the IEEE Transactions on Haptics). Please give a big hand to the authors, Yongjae Yoo, Inwook Hwang, and Seungmoon Choi!
