    I come from Qujing City, Yunnan Province, southwest China. I will work in DJI-Innovations after my graduation, in HongKong. I have some experience in aerial robotics system and gimbal system, include the omnidirectional vision system, calibration and application, autonomous navigation system, state estimation, and controller. I use C++ programming mostly and a little Python. I am familiar with OpenCV, ROS etc.

    I like to travel and feel the life in my own way. I am willing to take photos and aerial photography, using the drone with my own contribution. I am glad to be somewhere see what happened. I have been to Wenchuan during the 7.10 extra large mountain mudslides in 2013, to touch the true heart after the extreme disaster. I have been to North Korea during the 105th Festival of the Sun(태양절), to understand the people of such closed nation with war stress. I have been to Iran during the Islamic protest in Tehran during the Nowruz Days (نوروز).
