I'm a Senior Research Scientist at Apple where I am part of Sensing Technologies Group. I completed my Ph.D. in Computer Science, advised by Xing-Dong Yang in the XDiscovery Lab at Dartmouth College.
My research spans a range of different topics in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). I design, build and evaluate novel input and interaction for emerging platform, media and technology to provide enhanced and compelling user experiences. Specifically, I have developed sensing techniques for wearable devices to enable user's input without using touchscreen. I have also investigated seamless contextual sensing by bringing sensing capabilities to everyday objects such as garment and accessories.
