00 / POINT OF VIEWHUMAN × MACHINE

Beyond the screen
is where life happens.

I lead product definition and business while working hands-on with a technical team on software, robot integration, model inference and hardware in Shenzhen. I like connecting software to the physical world: models that understand a real scene, robots that act, and tools people want to use.

From robot manipulation and MicroDuck to agent visibility and playful interactive experiments, this site tracks projects, open source code and field notes in progress. At MetaHub, I also work on enterprise AI products and delivery.

T800 / Backflip Retargeting

Moving G1 backflips from an open motion dataset onto the T800 humanoid: 1.227× leg-length retargeting, per-frame IK correction, and MuJoCo kinematic replay rendered at 50 fps. The RL branch failed to produce a policy.

Handheld Tinkering

Two handhelds, four Linux builds and a 3D-printed grip: taking the R36S and RG353V apart until they feel like machines worth holding.

Flight Simulation

Time in a full-scale simulator cockpit, working through the checklists — plus the carrier models and COMAC keepsakes that keep aviation within reach.
