Smart Sensing and Robotics Group @ Tsinghua
Research Interests
We conduct the interdisciplinary research in the emerging field of robotics, machine learning and human-machine interfaces. My goal is to touch and break the boundary between materials, devices, circuits, systems and algorithms.
Robotic Sensing and Swarm Robots
Wearable systems and Human-Computer Interfaces
Smart sensing algorithms
Federated learning / Reinforcement learning
Contact
I am always looking for the self-motivated students with the background of electrical engineering, electronic engineering, computer science, mechanical engineering and materials science, and especially the ones who enjoy the experience to build up a working system.
If you are interested in working with us as a PostDoc or PhD / Master / Visiting student, please contact me.
For those applying for the TBSI graduate programs (master and PhD), please remeber to choose the Big data and artificial intelligence direction.
