I am a Ph.D. Student at Robotics and Computer Vision Lab & Pengcheng Laboratory, advised by Prof. Hong ZHANG and Prof. Wenjun Xu. I previously graduated from WHU with a B.E. in Microeletronics and from SUSTech with a M.E. in EE. My research interests involve 360 vision, robot person-following and human perception from a robot’s view.
🔥 News
- 2025.10: I presented our paper, Monocular Person Localization under Camera Ego-Motion, at IROS 2025 in Hangzhou. I’m honored to present at the [OWN workshop]. Friends interested in quadrupeds and omnidirectional vision: Welcome to talk with me!
- 2026.03: [TPT-Bench] has been accepted by IJRR!
- 2026.06: Our new paper, [Can Single-View Mesh Reconstruction Generalize to Robot Camera Rotation?]. We introduce an evaluation protocol with controlled axis-wise roll, pitch, and yaw sweeps to trace errors in monocular depth estimation (MDE), canonical object meshes, camera-space layout, and physical plausibility within a representative SAM3D-style pipeline. Focus on robot ego-view with rotations!
