What would the ultimate haptic device be like? In our #CHI2024 paper, we propose one possibility: a device that shapes user's full body experience all by stimulating the brain🧠. Haptic Source-Effector: Full-Body Haptics via Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation (🏅Honorable Mention)

My closest colleague, Jasmine Lu, is on the faculty job market ✨ Jasmine is one of the kindest and brightest minds I’ve ever met. I’m confident she will thrive anywhere, and any department would be lucky 🍀 to have her as a strong addition.

As of today, I am an Assistant Teaching Professor in the Entertainment Technology Center, an oddball department here at CMU! I can’t really find the words to express my excitement and gratitude. I'm so happy to have found this non-traditional academic role that fits me so well :)

Ever wonder why a ventriloquist's dummy seems to talk, or why a rubber hand can feel like your own? 🤔 Our brains perform an amazing trick, merging what we see, hear, and feel into a single reality. But this process isn't always stable. A new theory on why. 🧵 1/7
