About
Hi! I'm Rongkai Shi, a fourth-year Ph.D. student at University of Liverpool, advised by Prof. Hai-Ning Liang. Previously, I completed my undergraduate degree at Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University and worked as a research assistant in X-CHI Lab. My research interests fall broadly into Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Interaction Design. In specific, I focused on researching, designing, and evaluating interaction techniques, especially those involving multiple input modalities, for complex interaction scenarios in Virtual/Augmented Realty (VR/AR) systems.
