Weikai (Wei-Kai) Lin
Department of Computer Science @ University of Rochester, NY, USA

I am a Ph.D. student at the University of Rochester advised by Yuhao Zhu, focusing on Computer Graphics, AR/VR, Sensor Design, Computer Architecture, and Robotics. My goal is to bridge the gap between hardware and software through system-level design and optimization.
Previously, I earned my B.E. from Tsinghua University and my M.Sc. from Peking University. I have also interned at AMD and Cambricon Technologies. Find more details in my CV. 👉 If you are interested in collaboration, Feel free to reach out via email: wlin33 at ur.rochester.edu.
