Experience
Technical Team Member (Maritime RobotX Challenge)
2022
Sydney, Australia
- Created a realistic maritime virtual environment in Unity and developed an automation program to generate mesh labels, bounding box labels, and depth data, facilitating data for deep learning models.
- Designed a racquetball flinging device and integrated it into the Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) system using Arduino through ROS.
- Our team achieved 3rd place out of 20 teams.
Visiting MS student

Projects
Maritime RobotX Challenge
An autonomous robotic systems operating in the maritime domain competition
We built a heterogeneous USV and UAV team to solve multiple tasks including autonomous docking, navigation, obstacle avoidance, UAV launch & recovery, scan the code, racquetball flinging and acoustic pinging.
WFH-VR teleoperation system
A virtual reality-based teleoperation system that enables users to control robots across the globe.
The proposed system is based on a consumer-grade virtual reality device (Oculus Quest 2) with a low-cost robot arm (a LoCoBot). Leveraging the power of Unity PUN2 for seamless internet communication and the immersive virtual experience, In the virtual environment, we recreated real-world objects through 3D reconstruction or CAD modeling. Our interface synchronizes the movements of a virtual robot arm with the physical robot, providing a seamless experience for both the VR user and the robot's physical environment. our solution allows even 52 novices (i.e. with 5 or fewer hours of VR experience) effortlessly manipulate the robot arm while observing the virtual environment.
Carindex
A detecting instrument that evaluates the risk of tooth decay with saliva
We used synthetic biology technology to modify bacteria to detect targets which would cause tooth decay. These bacteria will be attached to test paper and freeze dried to preserve them until use. Also, we innovated a machine which will take a series of actions to activate the bacteria and a system that detects the strength of the excited light caused by Bacteria interacting with the targets and uses Bluetooth to upload the data, first to a cellphone and then to a server. The data are input into a model calculated by machine learning , and the results sent back to the user’s cellphone to show the risk of cavities.
