Mukai (Tom Notch) Yu
We always overestimate what we can do in 1 day, and underestimate what we can achieve in 10 years.
I’m a master student from 
Carnegie Mellon University, 
Robotics Institute, advised by Professor Sebastian Scherer and Professor László A. Jeni. I obtained my bachelor of science in 
Integrative Systems and Design and 
Computer Science (double major) from 
Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. Sometimes, I go by my nickname, Tom Notch.
I love all kinds of technology, robotics in particular. I have been participating in robotics competitions since elementary school, so I understand how far robots are from humans, and I’m working hard to close the gap.
Check this out to see places I visited. More about me on other pages of this website.
My research interest includes:
- Robotic Perception (SLAM)
- Robotic Exploration and Planning
- Control
