I am Runze Cai, a Ph.D. Student at the National University of Singapore (NUS), Synteraction Lab (formerly NUS-HCI Lab), and advised by Prof. Shengdong Zhao and Prof. David Hsu. I was also a visiting student at UIUC, advised by Prof. Yun Huang. My research interests focus on Context-Aware Wearable Assistant / Proactive AI on Smart Glasses within a Multimodal & Multitask Context, which involves:
Wearable Computing
Augmented Reality (AR)
Human-AI Collaboration
My Main RQ: How can we utilize AR Smart Glasses 🥽 with AI, to help users discover, manipulate, and create information in daily activities with minimal effort and distraction?
Open to Opportunities
I am actively looking for academia and industry positions starting early 2027.
