Yueteng Yu

PhD Scholar

BEng (SoftEng), MSc (HCI)

Yueteng’s research is devoted to advancing the Human-Machine Interface (HMI) in automated vehicles. Specifically, it seeks to generate new knowledge about designing multimodal HMIs to optimise safety and user experience effectively. He has practical experience in evaluating automotive interfaces in driving simulators and has conducted studies on drivers and passengers in real-road urban scenarios. He also has experience organising human-centred, multimodal data collection studies with an autonomous vehicle. His role as an HCI research intern at Tsinghua University and his experience as a Software Engineer at PwC and a UX researcher at an HMI R&D company has equipped him with a blend of cross-field, technical, and user-centred design skills.
