Hi! I'm Yufan Lin, an undergraduate student at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. My research interest is robotics — I want to build robots that benefit humanity.

I'm currently working as a research assistant at the Huzhou Institute of Zhejiang University, where my work focuses on dexterous robotic hands. I'm deeply grateful to Guannan Li for his mentorship and guidance.

AI-Powered Humanoid Robot for Human Interaction

An AI-driven humanoid robot designed for direct human interaction in real-world scenarios such as hospitals, homes, exhibition halls, parks, and care facilities. The platform integrates multimodal human-robot interaction, computer vision, voice interaction, and autonomous navigation. The project is still in development.
