Lingpeng Chen

I am a second-year Ph.D. student at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen (CUHK-Shenzhen).

I received my bachelor’s degree from CUHK-Shenzhen, supervised by Prof. Huihuan Qian. During my undergraduate study, I was also a visiting student at the Carnegie Mellon University Robotics Institute, supervised by Prof. Katia Sycara.

I am currently supervised by Prof. Junfeng Wu and Prof. Ziyang Hong, and we focus on underwater robotics. You are welcome to visit our lab website: LIAS @ CUHK-Shenzhen.

My research interests include:

  • Robot perception and mapping in underwater visually degraded environments
  • Robot informative path planning and control
  • Underwater robotic systems
