Selected as a 2026 RSS Pioneer
I was selected for the 2026 RSS Pioneers cohort, which recognizes early-career robotics researchers for their achievements and contributions.
About Me
I am a Ph.D. candidate in Robotics at The University of Hong Kong, supervised by Prof. Jia Pan, Wenping Wang, and Yifan (Evan) Peng. My thesis focuses on Real-time Computational Neuromorphic Vision for Robotics. I was selected as a 2026 RSS Pioneer, joining the RSS Pioneers cohort of early-career robotics researchers recognized for their achievements and contributions. I also hold the HKU Dissertation Year Fellowship.
My research interests include event-based / neuromorphic vision, computational imaging, and embodied AI.
