Changjae Oh — PhD, FHEA

I am currently Lecturer (Assistant Professor) at the School of Electronic Engineering and Computer Science (EECS), Queen Mary University of London (QMUL). Within QMUL, I'm member of Centre for Intelligent Sensing, Centre for Advanced Robotics, and Computer Vision Group. I earned my PhD degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Yonsei University, South Korea, and I was a postdoctoral researcher at QMUL (May 2018-Aug 2019). My current research interest is to investigate designing embodied agents, such as physical or virtual robots, to precisely perceive the environment and execute desirable actions for, such as, manipulation and navigation.
