Yingwen Jie

About

Jie, from Guangdong, China, is a product designer specializing in user interaction behavior development. With a background in mechanical and product design, he is passionate about studying human interaction behavior and exploring how external environments and actions affect the human body.
His goal is to apply his research findings through industrial design to provide users with innovative and advanced solutions. He believes that the body is, in fact, the best input device for brain-machine functions. Sensitive and complex bodily touch can offer a rich and diverse interactive experience.

Interests include: industrial product design, human-computer interaction design, and service design.

Jie focuses on incorporating these discoveries into the GyrO project, seeking to provide revolutionary experiences through industrial products and services. His designs strike a balance between rigorous scientific thinking and the elegance of design engineering, continuously creating new interaction methods and operational experiences for users.

In the GyrO project, he designed a virtual reality controller that provides users with a sense of direction and distance. In AR/VR activities, vision and hearing are the primary ways the brain constructs a virtual worldview. His design emphasizes bodily experience. In non-visual AR/VR activities, the controller transmits different directional and intensity impacts to the user’s hand, creatively delivering vectors to the user. This allows users to gain not only “scalar” vibration information but also new dimensional information—direction (vector)—creating a novel experience where the virtual world and the real world merge. The product remains compatible with various AR/VR programs, offering endless possibilities for future development.
