About Me

I am currently a Research Assistant (RA) at Tsinghua University and Research Engineer Intern at TARS Robotics, co-advised by Prof. Wenchao Ding and Prof. Yilun Chen. I am fortunate to work closely with Prof. Xiaoxiao Long from NJU, Prof. Ping Tan from HKUST and Prof. Hao Zhao from DISCOVER Lab. Previously, I was a visiting student at Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences in my senior year. And I got my B.Eng. in Mechatronics Engineering from Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture.

I am an active member of AnySyn3D, a non-profit research interest group comprising individuals with a strong interest in exploring research problems and cutting-edge technologies in any topics of 3D.

I am actively looking for the Robotics Ph.D opportunity in Fall 2025.

Research

My long-term research goal is to build Embodied Intelligence with dexterous manipulation and flexible mobility. It should be able to perceive and imagine the world, and derive insights through understanding to guide its actions. Specifically, I believe the key lies in leveraging 3D visual information along with other modalities (such as images, instructions, tactile, and force feedback) to learn how to perceive, reason, and act in both virtual and physical environments. So I am currently focusing on {Robotics, 3D Vision, Graphics} for Embodied AI:

  • 🤖 Robotics
    3D Vision-Language-Action Models; Whole-body Control; Autonomous Driving.
  • đź‘€ 3D Vision
    3D Scene Understanding (e.g.visual grounding, dense captioning, VQA); 3D Multi-modal Learning; Anomaly Detection.
  • 🪅 Graphics
    3D Reconstruction and Editing for Simulation, Video Generation.

🏆The 1st Place in Table Services Track
[Website] [Certificate]

In the Table Services track, we tackled a series of demanding tasks under strict requirements for speed, precision, and reliability: unfolding a tablecloth (deformable-object manipulation), placing a pizza onto the table (pick-and-place), and opening and closing a food storage box.
