Weiliang Deng 邓伟亮

Hi there 👋 I am a First-year Master student in The School of Intelligent Systems Engineering at Sun Yat-sen University. Now I am a member of Hardware and Intelligence (HI) Lab and working on Aerial Robots with Assoc. Prof. Ximin Lyu. Previously, I worked as a Research Assistant at Shanghai AI Laboratory, where I conducted research in Embodied AI under the supervision of Yao Mu in the ScaleLab. I obtained my bachelor's degree at Sun Yat-sen University in 2025.

My research interests lie at Aerial Robotics and Manipulation.
