About me: 

I received my PhD from Institute of Sensors, Signals, and Systems, Heriot-Watt University in April, 2023. I was supervised by Dr. Sen Wang and Prof. Yvan Petillot. I received my Master of Vision and Robotics (VIBOT ) from Burgundy University (France), University of Girona (Spain) and Heriot-Watt University (UK) respectively. I also had an internship stay at the research team RITS-INRIA, Paris. Back then I was supervised by Dr. Raoul de Charette and Dr. Fawzi Nashashibi. My research interests focus on Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), mobile robot navigation and visual navigation.
