Peiyang Wang | 王沛杨

I am a Ph.D. student at Department of Computer Science and Technology, Nanjing University, advised by Prof. Yang Gao and co-advised by Prof. Jing Huo and Prof. Jieqi Shi.

My research interests lie in Robotics and Embodied AI, focusing on humanoid loco-manipulation and I had conducted some research in the field of UAV Vision-Language-Navigation before. I am also interested in scalable data making and collecting tasks. My research vision is to equip humanoid robots operating in complex real-world environments with enhanced Dexterity, Adaptability, and Effectiveness.
