About

Dr. Alexander Kyu is pioneering the next generation of wearable human-computer interaction through his work in electrical impedance tomography (EIT) and real-time pose estimation. His landmark paper, "EITPose: Wearable and Practical Electrical Impedance Tomography for Continuous Hand Pose Estimation" (2024), has already garnered 22 citations, reflecting its immediate impact on the field. In this work, Kyu introduces a novel wrist-worn device that uses just eight strategically placed electrodes to model the internal structure of the forearm, enabling continuous, markerless 3D hand pose estimation without cumbersome gloves or external cameras. This breakthrough bridges the gap between practical wearability and high-fidelity motion capture, with transformative applications spanning gaming, robotics, and assistive technologies. By demonstrating that complex hand gestures can be inferred from subtle electrical impedance changes in the forearm, Kyu has opened new avenues for intuitive, always-available control interfaces. His research sits at the intersection of biomedical engineering, machine learning, and human-computer interaction, promising to make seamless digital interaction as natural as a wave of the hand.
