Yi (Cherry) Lian

Welcome! I'm Cherry Lian

Robotics Engineer & Researcher

I'm passionate about building robots that move, think, and collaborate with humans. My work centers on human-robot interaction (HRI), perception, and motion planning for autonomous systems. Currently, I’m pursuing my M.S. in Robotics at Georgia Tech, where I'm developing a robot guide dog to assist people with visual impairments. When I’m not debugging robots, I’m probably exploring a new city. Check out my map to see where I’ve been!
