About

Chen-Chi Liao bridges the gap between traditional cultural heritage and cutting-edge interactive technologies. His research primarily spans human-computer interaction, augmented reality (AR), and the Internet of Things (IoT), with a focus on creating intuitive, accessible interfaces for both artistic expression and industrial applications. Liao’s most notable contribution is “PuppetTalk,” a project that revitalizes the 300-year-old art of Chinese glove puppetry by integrating IoT sensors and conversational interfaces, allowing puppets to interact with digital environments. This work, with 8 citations, demonstrates how ICT can preserve and evolve cultural practices. In parallel, his paper “An AR-Based Manipulation System for Industrial Robots” (6 citations) addresses the need for more intuitive human-robot interfaces, replacing complex teaching pendants with AR-guided control for delicate industrial tasks. By merging tradition with innovation, Liao’s work not only advances interactive system design but also offers a blueprint for preserving intangible cultural heritage through technology. His research stands as a compelling example of how computing can serve both artistic and practical human needs.
