About

Xander Koo is a researcher in human-computer interaction, with a focus on haptic feedback and virtual reality (VR) systems. His work centers on making force guidance more intuitive and accessible, particularly through wearable devices. Koo’s most cited paper, “GuideBand: Intuitive 3D Multilevel Force Guidance on a Wristband in Virtual Reality” (2021, 24 citations), tackles a key challenge in VR: the complexity of vibrotactile feedback for 3D guidance. By designing a wristband that delivers multilevel force cues, he reduces users’ mental effort and improves guidance performance. This contribution addresses a critical gap in haptic interaction, where traditional patterns often overwhelm users. Koo’s research has implications for VR training, rehabilitation, and immersive gaming, where seamless feedback is essential. His work is notable for bridging hardware design and user experience, earning recognition for its practical approach to enhancing spatial awareness in virtual environments. With a growing citation record, Koo is establishing himself as a thoughtful innovator in haptic interfaces, pushing toward more natural and effective human-VR communication.
