Research Interests:
Applying automation and hardware-software interaction techniques to solve key engineering problem. During my time at Manufacturing Process Control Lab (MPCL), I established an electrical box for an servo-driven ball-screw mechanism from scratch, and designed a path to deburr an airplane bevel gear by using a 6-degree robot arm and its software named RobotStudio.
