Difeng Yu

Difeng Yu is a Postdoc in the Human-Centred Computing section at the Department of Computer Science, University of Copenhagen. Located at Sigurdsgade 41, Copenhagen N, Yu contributes to advancing VR interaction techniques through empirical and theoretical research. His work spans multiple subfields of immersive technology, with a particular focus on selection methods and user embodiment.

Research Interests:

• Virtual Reality interaction design
• Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) theory
• Movement mapping and motor learning
• 3D object selection techniques
• Haptic feedback in immersive environments

Recent publications demonstrate a progression from foundational VR interaction challenges (2018-2019) to advanced applications in consumer VR (2022-2024) and cutting-edge research on perceptual illusions (2025). Key trends include the development of predictive models for selection tasks, exploration of multi-modal interaction techniques, and evaluation of user experience metrics like presence and engagement.
