Summary
Yuxiang Peng is a PhD candidate in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Delaware specializing in robot perception, SLAM, and visual-inertial navigation systems, with eight years of experience bridging academic research and industry. As a research assistant in the Robot Perception and Navigation Group under Dr. Guoquan (Paul) Huang, he focuses on state estimation and real-world navigation problems while contributing to projects that close the gap between theory and deployable systems. His background includes algorithm engineering at Meituan, an engineering internship at Bosch Power Tools, and a recent Google internship working on 6-DoF motion tracking for Android XR, reflecting strong applied systems experience. A high-performing graduate of Zhejiang University (3.96/4.0), he combines rigorous theoretical training with hands-on implementation skills across perception stacks and sensor fusion. Notably, his trajectory shows an ability to move from foundational research to production-focused AR/robotics features in large-scale platforms.
