I’m HAN Xudong, a Ph.D. student at Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), advised by Chaoyang Song and Fang Wan.
I am interested in the vision-based machine intelligence to develop smart robot systems through design and learning.
Previously, I received the B.E. degree in mechanical engineering at SUSTech in 2022. I also spent time at AncoraSpring in 2025.
