Shan-Yuan Teng is an Assistant Professor at National Taiwan University's Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering and a Yushan Young Fellow awarded by Taiwan's Ministry of Science and Technology. He leads the Dexterous Interaction Lab (DexLab), a newly established research group focused on advancing human dexterity through novel interactive technologies. Professor Teng's research explores the future of Human-Computer Interaction through three core themes: designing systems that enhance physical task performance (repair, craft, cooking), enabling multisensory experiences in daily mobile contexts, and creating accessible tools for people with disabilities. His lab develops hardware-software systems that move beyond simple vibration to deliver rich haptic feedback via wearables and AR interfaces. Recent publications demonstrate this vision through innovations like fingernail devices for AR button sensations (CHI 2021), exoskeletons combining electrical stimulation with mechanical braking for hand pose guidance (UIST 2021), and sensory substitution devices translating vision to tactile feedback for blind users (CHI 2025). Professor Teng has received the prestigious Yushan Young Fellowship, recognizing his potential as an early-career researcher. His work bridges computer science, electrical engineering, and human studies to create practical dexterity-enhancing technologies. The Dexterous Interaction Lab actively recruits students for interdisciplinary research, emphasizing hands-on prototyping skills. The lab maintains a fully equipped workspace documented through their 'lab hacks' series, featuring custom 3D-printed solutions for fume extraction, cabinet mounting, and cable management. Professor Teng teaches CSIE5647: Making and Inventing Interactive Devices, launching in Fall 2025.
