Professional Summary
Year-3 undergraduate at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Integrative Systems and Design, Minor in Robotics) — top 10% of cohort. Embodied-AI researcher focused on vision-language-action (VLA) models, world models for manipulation, and sim-to-real reinforcement learning. Co-author of an ICML 2026 publication. Two-year Mechanical Lead at HKUST RoboMaster ENTERPRIZE; RMUC 2024 International Champion.
Experience
-
2023 - 2025 Hong Kong
Head of Mechanical Department
HKUST RoboMaster Team ENTERPRIZE
Mechanical lead for the team representing HKUST in the DJI-organised RoboMaster collegiate robotics championship.
- Team management — directed an 11-person mechanical team; owned seasonal technical roadmap, task breakdown, and parallel multi-robot R&D scheduling.
- Cross-department interface with electrical, vision, and hardware; standardised mech-electrical interfaces and routing to cut integration rework.
- Personal contributions — independent design of serial-leg infantry, rudder-wheel infantry gimbal, and quadcopter UAV (CAD → simulation → manufacture → integration → debug).
- Open-source impact — multiple core mechanical designs published to the RoboMaster community (article #542).
- Awards while in role — RMUC 2024 International Champion · RoboMaster 2025 University League Champion · RMUC 2025 National runner-up · RMUL 2024 regional runner-up.

2026 MVISTA-4D: View-Consistent 4D World Model with Test-Time Action Inference for Robotic Manipulation
Jiaxu Wang, Yicheng Jiang, Tianlun He, Jingkai Sun, Qiang Zhang, Junhao He, Jiahang Cao, Zesen Gan, Mingyuan Sun, Qiming Shao, Xiangyu Yue
ICML 2026
A 4D world model that takes single-view RGBD input and produces multi-view-consistent 3D/4D scene representations, enabling an imagine-then-act decision paradigm for manipulation. End-to-end loop from sensor capture, multi-view reconstruction, dataset construction, and model training, to real-robot validation.
