Hi, my name is Junheng, I am a Ph.D. student in the Department of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering at the University of Southern California. I work with Professor Quan Nguyen at the Dynamic Robotics and Control Laboratory. My research focuses on dynamic control of humanoid robots in locomotion and manipulation (loco-manipulation) through model-based control strategies such as Model Predictive Control (MPC), Whole-body Control (WBC), and Trajectory Optimization (TO). I have served as the lead on HECTOR project.
