Portrait of Woojin Ko

My name is Woojin, and I am a PhD student in Computer Science at Cornell Tech. I am a member of the XR Collaboratory.

My research is in human-computer interaction and applied AI, with a focus on the intersection of technology and physical / mental health. I work on the development and design process of applications, mostly in the domains of virtual and augmented reality (VR / AR), mobile, and web. My past projects have spanned various areas such as AI research, healthcare, architectural design, music, and more.

Previously, I graduated from UC Berkeley with a B.S. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science as a member of the Berkeley EECS Honors Program. I worked under the supervision of Prof. Bjoern Hartmann in the Jacobs Institute for Design Innovation, Prof. Luisa Caldas in the XR Lab, and Dr. Allen Yang in the FHL Vive Center for Enhanced Reality.
