Feiyu Zhao


I am a Master’s student in Computer Science at ShanghaiTech University and a member of the ShanghaiTech Automation and Robotics (STAR) Center, advised by Prof. Chenxi Xiao. My research focuses on robotic perception and manipulation with tactile sensing, including active contact-based exploration and 3D shape reconstruction for precise measurement and dexterous manipulation.

Seeking Research Intern Opportunities starting Mar. 2026.
