He is currently pursuing a Ph.D. degree with NEUTRON Laboratory at the Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics (NUAA), under supervision of Prof. Poramate Manoonpong.
He earned his M.Eng. in Robotics and Automation from Institute of Field Robotics (FIBO), King Mongkut’s University of Technology Thonburi (KMUTT), Thailand. He also holds a Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical and Communication Engineering from Mahidol University, Thailand.
His areas of interest include machine (reinforcement) learning for robotics, legged robotics, bio-inspired robotics, bionic technology and high-level cognitive robotics with the aim of enhancing the intelligence of robots. His long-term goal is to bring the robot out of the lab into the real world and make it really work in the wild.
