The Life Enhancing Technology Lab conducts research in various engineering fields aimed at improving human life, based on the principles of human factors engineering. Human factors engineering is a discipline that applies knowledge gained from studying the physical, mental abilities, limitations, and characteristics of humans to the design of systems such as products and services.

Our lab focuses on a range of research topics, including ergonomic studies related to automotive design to contribute to Korea’s core automotive industry, user experience design studies to enhance the lives of hospital patients, caregivers, and medical staff, research on creativity and idea generation methods to improve designers’ capabilities, and studies on the natural interaction between humans and objects in virtual environments. Through these efforts, we aim to advance innovative solutions that enhance human well-being.
