Hi, I am a Ph.D. student at Sato lab, the University of Tokyo, supervised by Prof. Yoichi Sato. I got my M.E. degree from State Key Laboratory of VR Technology and Systems, Beihang University in 2023, advised by Prof. Feng Lu (PHI-AI). Previously, I received my B.E. degree in Software Engineering from Shandong University in 2020.

My research interests lie in human computer interaction, computer vision, and AR/MR. Currently my research mainly focuses on egocentric vision and hand-related tasks. Previously, I was studying gaze estimation during my master program.
