Summary
Donghao Li is an MS Robotics student at the University of Michigan and a research-focused engineer with roughly a decade of hands-on experience in robotics, computer vision, and simulation-driven research. He has contributed to SLAM robustness and real-time LiDAR Gaussian-splatting projects at UMich’s Robotics Department and FCAV, and has developed multi-robot navigation and ROS-integrated planning algorithms during internships at Honda Research Institute and Dassault Systèmes. His background blends EE/MechE and computer science fundamentals from RPI and UW–Madison with practical skills in CFD, CNN-based prediction, object detection, and multi-agent evaluation frameworks. Donghao’s work straddles both academic research and industry integration, and he often pairs algorithm development with system-level testing—outside the lab he curates a personal site that highlights his projects (and his cats), reflecting a curious, multidisciplinary approach to robotics.
