Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolQingan Yan is a Staff Research Scientist and Tech Lead based in Palo Alto with nine years of experience building 3D computer vision and embodied AI systems for consumer devices and research. He leads R&D at OPPO’s US research center on neural 3D reconstruction, scene understanding, semantic segmentation, depth estimation and vision-language navigation, translating foundational research into XR and wearable applications. Previously he drove 3D modeling and virtual try-on projects at JD.com and developed multi-view stereo and texture synthesis methods during his Ph.D. at Wuhan University. Comfortable spanning theory and engineering, he combines deep academic training with product-focused delivery, routinely bridging SLAM, multimodal foundation models and real-time constraints. Outside of work he signs code and notes with a musical nod—“Canon in D”—hinting at a detail-oriented, creative approach to complex visual problems.
