About

An-Chi He is a pioneering researcher in the field of virtual reality (VR) haptics, with a focused expertise in lower-body locomotion interfaces. Their most-cited work, "Design and development of a locomotion interface for virtual reality lower-body haptic interaction" (2025), introduces a novel system that bridges the gap between physical movement and immersive digital environments, enabling users to experience realistic ground feedback while walking or running in VR. This contribution addresses a critical challenge in VR—how to make virtual locomotion feel natural and physically engaging—by integrating haptic actuators and motion-tracking sensors into a wearable or platform-based interface. With 2 citations already in its early publication year, the work signals growing interest from the VR and human-computer interaction communities. He’s research stands out for its practical approach to enhancing presence and reducing simulator sickness, offering a foundation for future applications in gaming, rehabilitation, and training simulations. By prioritizing user-centered design and real-time responsiveness, An-Chi He is shaping how we physically interact with virtual worlds, making strides toward truly embodied digital experiences.
