I am a Master’s student at ShanghaiTech University, majoring in Computer Science, supervised by Prof. Jingyi Yu. I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science with a minor in Interaction Design at the same university. I am also collaborating with HY-LAB under the guidance of Prof. Yue Zou. My work blends AI, computer vision, and interactive systems to create innovative, user-centered solutions. I am passionate about the intersection of technology and art, aiming to enhance human experiences through creative technologies.

🎯 Design
Syncret
Syncret is a future incense holder authored by an AI system. The system studies incense rituals as heritage, then selects two museum artifacts and synthesizes a single form. A transparent cube frames the object so each face alternately reads as intact identity or hybrid reading. By reformatting ritual continuity into shifting legibility, Syncret asks what persists and what disappears when AI redesigns culture.
