Hello, I'm Boxuan Ye

Working Experiences

Robotics · AI · Design Engineering

My work sits at the intersection of robotic manipulation, perception, and interaction design. I build systems that understand objects, respond to human motion, and behave with a sense of legibility. Much of my practice blends RGB-D sensing, embedded hardware, fabrication tools, and behaviour-driven interfaces. Projects range from teleoperation pipelines and open-vocabulary 6D pose estimation to children’s interaction devices and soft, quiet tools for everyday environments.

• 🎨 Teachable interaction devices for 0–6 year-olds

Interfaces

Soft technology & calm tools

I’m interested in how technical systems can feel gentle—how robotics, sensing, and datasets can be shaped as quiet, legible tools rather than noisy complexity. My work often focuses on interaction behaviours: micro-feedback, spatial clarity, and the visual organisation of diagrams and control surfaces.

I prototype with a mixture of embedded controllers, RGB-D cameras, motion sensors, and computational pipelines, supported by clean editorial UI layers for debugging, teleoperation, and documentation.

Education Background

Robotics, interaction, soft infrastructures

My ongoing work moves between engineering and narrative systems, exploring how tools can be designed with clarity, emotional distance, and precision—similar to the logic of editorial design.

Research Interests

A living archive

I maintain a small archive of experiments, diagrams, code notes, dataset runs, and speculative sketches—updated whenever a result feels worth capturing.
