Kandao Prometheus Vision

I am currently a PhD student in CMA, HKUST(GZ), supervised by Prof. Kang ZHANG and Prof. Zeyu WANG.

Short Bio

• I received my BSc degree from Dalian University of Technology, China in 2012, and my MSc degree from Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) in 2013.

• From 2016 to 2018, I was in the founding team of Kandao as Head of Algorithm. I started and led the vision team in charge of computer vision related algorithms and desktop software.

Obsidian Pro Kandao Studio Meeting

• In 2018, I cofounded Zhuhai Prometheus Vision as CTO. We make the best Volumetric Video solution in China.

Camera Array Textured Mesh

• In 2022, I was appointed off-campus supervisor of Tsinghua Shenzhen International Graduate School.

• I started my part-time PhD at HKUST(GZ) in 2022. I regularly serve as a reviewer for CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, SIGGRAPH, 3DV, etc.
