Hi, I'm Peter He
Cornell 🌽 ECE + CS '27
I work within the areas of Human Computer Interaction, Wearables, and XR.
At Cornell I conduct research under Prof. Cheng Zhang in the Sci-Fi Lab as well as previously with Prof. Thijs Roumen at Cornell Tech. My current project involves fabricating textile-based dry electrodes for electro-tactile stimulation.
I am also the founder and lead of Cornell XR, the fastest club to ever become an official Cornell Engineering project team building projects in Haptics and XR.
Previously, I was an engineering intern @ Halo, building both software and hardware for smartglasses with a display + always-on AI assistance, I also made firebending real.
Outside of my academics, I enjoy creative work, building weird tech, and making satirical designs. I've been commisioned to make 3D-printed sculptures and other works before.
Feel free to reach out to me at ph475@cornell.edu
or
connect with me on LinkedIn.
I am currently looking for summer undergraduate REU or industry research opportunities.
