Research Assistant | Advisor: Dr. Simone D'Amico September 2019 ~ June 2024
- Developed robust deep learning models and GN&C algorithms for vision-based rendezvous with known and unknown targets in space
- Developed and calibrated the Testbed for Rendezvous and Optical Navigation (TRON) facility at SLAB that is capable of physically simulating spacecraft proximity operations with a mockup satellite mdodel under high-fidelity spaceborne illumination settings and estimating high-accuracy pose labels
- Developed the next-generation open-source datasets (e.g., SPEED+, SHIRT) using TRON to train and validate spaceborne vision-based deep learning and GNC algorithms with emphasis on robustness across domain gap
- Organized the second international Satellite Pose Estimation Competition (SPEC2021) in collaboration with the European Space Agency
