Ph.D. Candidate
Hi! My name is Tianyi .
I'm a Ph.D. student in Robotics at CMU advised by Prof. Matthew Johnson-Roberson.
I'm broadly interested in optical perception, 3D vision, graphics, localization, mapping, and their applications on field robots.
I do electronic design and embedded system development for robots as well.

Work Experience
Automated Camera-LiDAR-IMU calibration for a delivery robot.
Got my first-ever funding from TJU to do my undergrad thesis at MIT working with Dr. Dixia Fan.
SLAMTEC build really good LiDARs and Robot platforms. Check it out!
