Hello! I'm Yimou (Kevin) Wu, a M.Phil. student at CUHK, advised by Prof. Zheng Li. I study how robots can perceive, understand, and interact with the physical world — bridging geometry-grounded perception, memory-augmented learning, and real-time control. My research focuses on embodied AI and robot learning, with an emphasis on scene representation, spatial memory, and action.

Previously, I received my B.Eng. from CUHK, and I was also a Visiting Student at UC Berkeley.
