Research Interests
- Tangible User Interfaces, to enable embodied interaction with digital information through the manipulation of physical objects in space.
- (Augmented) Data Physicalization, to fabricate physical objects from the data for the education of the general public or for training (e.g., combined with AR).
- Design for Repairability, to research and prototype devices that can be easily maintained, disassembled, diagnosed, and restored by users or technicians, thereby extending product lifespans and reducing electronic waste.
Short Bio
I am a PhD student focusing on Human-Computer Interaction, Data Physicalisation, and Tangible User Interfaces at the Research Unit of Computer Graphics of the Institute of Visual Computing & Human-Centered Technology, at TU Wien, Austria. Previously I was a design researcher at Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design, Budapest specializing in the intersection of design, nature, and technology. My primary goal is to bridge the gap between industrial product design and academic research through practical projects. I explore Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) through practical research as a design researcher. Previously, I collaborated with numerous international companies as a design contractor, creating products ranging from lamps and air purifiers to medical devices. Proficient in additive manufacturing and rapid prototyping, I excel at quickly bringing ideas to life.
