CS374 Fall'25 Project Gallery
Made with ❤️ by KAIST students
This fall, ICLab, and our professor Uichin Lee lectured on Introduction to HCI (Human-Computer Interaction) course.
The students learned the spirit and methods of HCI and got hands-on experience in design, by following the user-centric process from needfinding to iterative evaluation of prototypes.
It must not be easy for students to do many assignments and presentations, but they achieved much while exercising the well-structured design practices. The passion of every student who finished the seven-step design projects made the course meaningful.
Here, we proudly introduce all projects done by students!
WeGoGym - Best UX Award
by Eojin Koh, Jihoon Hwang, Ethan John Walters and Pigny Louis Bernard Regis
Team Name: Dream Team
WeGoGym removes the anxiety of approaching others to ask for help in the gym through dual guidance features. The ‘Help Me’ Ping system allows beginners to discreetly signal their need for support, which instantly notifies and matches them with experienced on-site gymgoers who can provide real-time, personalized support like form corrections, advice, or spotting. For independent learning, AR Guidance overlays a user's camera with personalized hologram demonstrations, featuring crucial details like color-coded target muscles and controls for adjustable speed, making it easy for beginners to master form privately and with confidence.
