Our paper “Visuo-haptic Crossmodal Shape Perception Model for Shape-Changing Handheld Controllers Bridged by Inertial Tensor” won an honorable mention in the CHI 2023. Please give a big hand to the authors, Chaeyong Park and Jungwoo Kim!
Two papers “Heat Transfer Calculation Model and Thermal Rendering Using Wearable Device” and “Estimating Information Transfer for Sequential Full Body Vibrotactile Stimuli” won the best paper award in the HCI Korea 2023. Please give a big hand to the authors, Hoseok Jung, Jaejun Park, Junwoo Kim, Sangyoon Han, and Chaeyong Park!
One new member entered the interaction lab in the spring semester of 2023. Heeji Sohn started her degree with a master’s program.
Hojun Cha was awarded his Ph.D. and Daehyeon Nam was awarded the master’s degrees. ojun Cha presented a Ph.D. thesis about haptic modeling and rendering of viscoelastic behavior using fractional derivatives. He is going to continue his career as a researcher at Samsung Electronics. Daehyeon Nam presented a Ph.D. thesis about science museum exhibit upcycling using digital augmentation and continue his career as a researcher at Cupix. Praise for the bright future of our graduates!
Two papers “A Multimodal Wearable Haptic Interaction System Combining Electrical Muscle Stimulation and Vibration for VR Sports” and “MMGrip: A Multimodal Haptic Device Combining Vibration, Impact, and Shear for Realistic Haptic Feedback” won the best paper award in the Korea Software Congress 2022. Please give a big hand to the authors, Jungeun Lee and and Donggeun Kim!
The metaverse content “Ballet Metanique,” created by our lab and the Art & Technology Lab of the Korea National University of Arts, was invited to “Ars Electronica Festival 2022”, a prestigious festival in the field of media art. Jung Ho Seok and Kim Joon Woo increased the immersion of the work by implementing haptic technology that responds to sound through haptic vests that give vibration feedback and gloves that give off heat and cold sensations. They will continue their joint research to provide new experiences that cross the boundaries of art and technology.

Dr. Yongjae Yoo will be working as an assistant professor at Department of Artificial Intelligence at Hanyang University ERICA Campus in Korea from September.
Two new members entered the interaction lab in the fall semester of 2022. Heeyeon Kim (left) and Jaehyeok An (right) started their degrees with a master’s program.
In 2022, we published several papers about haptic perception/rendering, novel interaction methods/systems, and 4D motion effects. For haptic perception, “Perceived Intensity Model of Dual-Frequency Superimposed Vibration: Pythagorean Sum” was accepted in IEEE ToH, “Perception of Electrostatic Friction Stimuli in Free Surface Exploration” was presented in the IEEE Haptics Symposium, and “A Preliminary Study on the Perceptual Independence Between Vibrotactile and Thermal Senses” was published in the EuroHaptics 2022. For novel interaction methods, our research about “Vibration-Augmented Buttons: Information Transmission Capacity and Application to Interaction Design” was presented in the 2022 CHI. About 4D motion effects, “Data-Driven Rendering of Motion Effects for Walking Sensation in Different Gaits” was presented in the 2022 ToH. For more information, please see our publications tab.
Dr. Hojin Lee has been working at Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) since February.
