Hi, I'm Chenyang Zhang!

The future of computing goes beyond screens. Digital systems will become increasingly integrated into our physical spaces, aware of our surroundings, and responsive to our activities. This future calls for a new generation of human interfaces.

I am a third-year Ph.D. student in Human-Centered Computing at Georgia Tech, advised by Prof. Yalong Yang at the IVI Lab. My research explores how spatial interfaces and context-aware AI can reshape the way people interact with technology in everyday life. During my Ph.D., I interned at Google, where I explored new ways of browsing and interacting with the web in XR.

Before joining Georgia Tech, I had a wonderful time studying at ShanghaiTech University as an undergraduate and at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign as a master's student.

🚗 I'll be at UIST ’26 in Detroit. See you there!

🏯 I'll be presenting our paper, Break the Window (BTW), at VRST ’26 in Sendai. Looking forward to seeing you there!
