Go forth, then, and do great work.

About Me

Hi, I am Mingxuan Li (李明暄). I am now a Master student in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Tsinghua University (THU), where I also obtained my bachelor's degree. I will join the College of AI, Tsinghua University, as an incoming Ph.D. student, and work with Prof. Tao Du from the Institute for Interdisciplinary Information Sciences (IIIS), Tsinghua University. Previously, I worked as a visiting student at (CSAIL), under the supervision of Prof. Edward H. Adelson. I am willing to collaborate and discuss ideas with researchers from different institutions and fields.

I was the Vice President and Academic Affairs Representative of the Graduate Association, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Tsinghua University. Also, I was a graduate of “Spark” (星火) Innovative Talent Cultivation Program for Students of Tsinghua University (Top 1% for outstanding research performance), the student head of the ClearTactile (清触未来) tech startup team (academic research & entrepreneurship), and vice president of Hunan Cultural Student Association of Tsinghua (in charge of science & innovation and lecture activities).

I am looking for internship and visiting opportunities, please feel free to contact me : )

Research Interests

My research lies in Embodied Intelligence and Robotics, with a particular focus on Tactile Perception & Grasping, Vision-Based Tactile Sensors, and Contact Modeling. I am currently focusing on improving robot grasping and manipulation through contact modelling and tactile sensing.
