Chief of Assembly & Structures @ Astrix - Student Space Exploration

About

I am a Mechanical Engineering and Robotics student at HKUST focused on the intersection of structural design and system control. During my Robotics internship at Hanson Robotics, I developed ROS-based AI pipelines for Sophia the Robot, implementing deep learning models using PyTorch and YOLO to bridge the gap between perception and physical hardware. As the Chief of Assembly and Structures for Astrix (HKUST CanSat), I lead the structural engineering and precision prototyping of aerospace hardware. My technical work is centered on the transition from mechanical design to software control—combining FEA and topology optimization in SolidWorks with programming to achieve high-precision control in mechatronic systems.
