About Me

I am a research intern advised by Prof. Kostas Daniilidis and Prof. Lingjie Liu at UPenn GRASP Lab. I spend my undergraduate studies in CSE & Chu Kochen Honors College at Zhejiang University with GPA of 3.99/4.0. Previously, I was privileged to work with Prof. Hang Zhao, Prof. Yu-Xiong Wang, Prof. Yue Wang, and Prof. Xiaowei Zhou.

My research interests lie at the intersection of 3D/4D vision, generative modeling, and robotics, specifically focusing on building intelligent systems that can perceive, understand and model the dynamic 4D world from everyday photographs and videos.

Robotics Projects

Robust Robot Walker: Learning Agile Locomotion over Tiny Traps
To enables quadruped robots to pass various small obstacles, we incorporate a contact encoder and a classification head to learn implicit representations of traps and design tailored reward functions to improve stability.
SARO: Space-Aware Robot System for Terrain Crossing via VLM
To enble robot navigate across 3D terrains, we leverage VLM for high-level reasoning and execution, with a design of task decomposition and closedloop sub-task execution.
Vision-Centric Mobile Manipulator
To enable agents to autonomously navigate and grasp objects in complex factory environments, we design a mobile manipulator, with YOLO-based detection module, patrol navigation module, and grasp planning module.
